Your holding period in virtual currency received as a gift includes the time that the virtual currency was held by the person from whom you received the gift. However, if you do not have documentation substantiating that person’s holding period, then your holding period begins the day after you receive the gift. For more information on holding periods, see Publication 544, Sales and Other Dispositions of Assets.
