  When investing in digital currencies through a fidelity 401k, it's important to consider the tax implications. Digital currencies are treated as property for tax purposes, which means that any gains or losses from their sale or exchange may be subject to capital gains tax. If you hold the digital currencies for less than a year before selling or exchanging them, any gains may be considered short-term capital gains and taxed at your ordinary income tax rate. If you hold them for more than a year, the gains may be considered long-term capital gains and taxed at a lower rate. It's important to keep track of your transactions and report them accurately on your tax return.
