I don't think you'd normally report the exchange used to trade on your tax return, just the transactions themselves.

They can definitely make assumptions, though, when you report you sold XYZ coin that's not traded on any US-regulated exchanges.



For cryptocurrencies there is a field where you fill out the institution on which you executed the trade.


Never seen that. What form has it?


Ah, turbotax exposed the field but looking at the generated form 8949 I see the info wasn't passed on to the return.
