In the United States, cryptocurrencies like Fido are legal but regulated. You must complete KYC (Know Your Customer) and AML (Anti-Money Laundering) checks when buying. Cryptocurrencies are subject to taxes, such as capital gains tax when you sell them for more than you paid. Income from staking or rewards may also be taxable. Always keep records of your transactions for tax purposes.

How can I store my Fido?

To keep Fido safe, you can use custodial wallets, where a service holds your tokens, or non-custodial wallets, where you control them. Hot wallets are online and convenient but less secure, while cold wallets are offline and safer. Always back up your wallet and keep recovery phrases secure. Use proof of reserves to ensure your tokens are safe. Choose the storage method that balances security and convenience for you.
