A field audit usually goes on for 2-3 years, and they don't really let up. If they think you are lying then it becomes a crimal investigation instead of a financial investigation. Just being honest with them is emotionally exhausting because of how intrusive they are. I'm guessing you've never had IRS agents audit you for all your crypto transactions before.
