Effect of IRA distribution on annual contribution limit

I contributed $3900 to Roth IRA in 2022, then I made the withdrawal of the entire amount, also in 2022. I want to contribute to Traditional IRA instead. Does my $3900 Roth contribution still counts toward annual contribution limit for 2022?

Tax Filing Tips

Crypto

I have a business where I purchase items from people and sell them on Amazon. Amazon gives a 1099k form at the end of the year. When I buy items, I pay people via ACH transfer or a third party platform like CashAp. Many people are interested in crypto payments. Would I be able to pay people with crypto and put the transactions on my taxes as a write off? I know I can use receipts for ACH and CashApp to put on it to lower the profits, for example I pay someone $100 for an item and sell the item for $200, and put the receipt on my taxes so I only made $100 instead of $200, could I do it with crypto? Thanks.
