Australia’s Crypto User Growth and Regulations
Australia’s crypto market is advancing with user growth and regulatory reforms, but there are still issues in the sector that need to be resolved. Coinbase APAC General Manager John O’Loghlen told Cointelegraph that the government is increasing its digital asset expertise through the Treasury and ASIC, creating positive momentum. The country’s first BTC detailed analysis ETF was launched in June 2024, while the Ether (ETH) ETF hit the market in October 2024. Coinbase’s inclusion in the S&P 500 index provides passive access to institutions. According to Independent Reserve’s 2025 report, the crypto adoption rate among Australians has risen to 31%, with 29% planning to invest in the next 12 months.
Sector Growth and Challenges Faced
OKX Australia CEO Kate Cooper stated that they are seeing growth from advanced traders, self-managed super fund (SMSF) trustees, and high-net-worth individuals, with many SMSFs being set up for crypto investments. However, issues such as banking barriers, debanking, and stablecoin support continue. Australian crypto lawyer Bill Morgan said that legal regulation is on hold due to the ASIC-Block Earner case and the government change.
