Down Under’s Crypto Roundup: Aussie Gov’t Lassoing Platforms into the Licensing Pen!

-

Imagine Australia’s crypto cowboys, wild and unregulated, galloping across the digital outback, until now.

The Treasury drops the Corporations Amendment (Digital Assets Framework) Bill 2025 like a bureaucratic meteor, roping crypto platforms into the Australian Financial Services Licence corral.

This beast mandates digital asset platforms and tokenized custody outfits to grab that AFSL, folding them snugly into the financial services regime with all its property, consumer, insolvency, criminal, family, and tax law charms.

Bonds, property, commodities gone digital

Our hero, the Aussie government, embarks on this quest to shield millions of digital asset dabblers without strangling innovation.

Assistant Treasurer Daniel Mulino crows that it’s about making crypto “as safe and secure as possible,” unlocking a juicy A$24 billion in yearly productivity savings from tokenization magic, think bonds, property, commodities gone digital.

Short paragraphs for the win here, guys. Platforms must now strut efficiently, honestly, fairly, crystal-clear disclosures on asset storage, ironclad governance, risk controls, no misleading shenanigans, plus dispute fixes and compensation.

Tailored for crypto quirks, sure, but small fry get a pass, under A$5,000 per customer or A$10 million yearly transactions exempt, like those cheeky non-cash payment loopholes.

Enforced transparency and integrity

Previously? Crypto exchanges just dodged anti-money laundering and KYC bullets, per the Australian Financial Review.

No more free rides. This builds on ASIC’s recent tokenized product clarifications and Chair Joe Longo’s rallying cry, seize tokenization or get left in the cosmic dust.

The bill hit parliament Wednesday, first read done, second reading queued, explanatory memos spell it out, promising consumer protections matching traditional finance.

Overseas platform implosions? History now, with enforced transparency and integrity.

Will platforms comply or rebel? The outback watches, wallets at the ready.
