I'm wondering if I need to pay taxes when I convert my cryptocurrencies. I'm not sure about the tax implications of such transactions and would like to understand if there are any taxes to be paid.

When individuals earn income directly from cryptocurrency activities, such as mining or staking rewards, this income is taxed as ordinary income.
