Australia is moving forward with a clear regulatory framework for the cryptocurrency sector. As outlined by the Treasury in March 2024, new legislation is planned for public consultation in 2025 to bring digital asset exchanges and custody services under the same legal standards as other financial service providers. This marks a pivotal shift in how the country approaches digital assets, focusing on compliance, licensing, and consumer asset management.

In this emerging regulatory environment, Bintense, a regulated crypto exchange based in the EU, offers a direct and transparent model for Australian users looking to buy and sell Bitcoin and Ethereum. Its structure aligns closely with the direction Australia is taking—where clear procedures, accountability, and a focus on operational clarity are at the forefront.
A New Regulatory Era for Australia
The Australian government’s plan will extend existing financial services laws to key digital asset platforms. Entities operating above certain thresholds will be required to obtain an Australian Financial Services Licence, meet minimum capital requirements, and follow rules safeguarding customer assets. Smaller-scale platforms and blockchain software developers will remain exempt.
The government has also committed to addressing debunking—a major concern for crypto businesses. In collaboration with Australia’s four largest banks, officials aim to better understand why certain platforms are excluded from banking services. These moves demonstrate a growing recognition of digital assets as a permanent component of the country’s financial system.
The Bintense Model: Focused, Regulated, and Direct
In contrast to multi-asset marketplaces, Bintense operates as a focused exchange supporting only two core cryptocurrencies: Bitcoin and Ethereum. This simplified structure makes it easier for individuals and businesses to engage in digital currency exchanges without being overwhelmed by unnecessary complexity.
For Australian users—whether private individuals or companies—Bintense provides:
● Direct transactions: Crypto is delivered directly to a user’s personal wallet. There are no stored funds, reducing layers of third-party involvement.
● No internal custody: Bintense does not act as a wallet or custodian, simplifying its operational model and aligning with the principle of users retaining full control over their assets.
● Step-by-step clarity: The process is structured and easy to follow, from identity verification to payment via credit card or bank transfer.
● EU-based regulatory compliance: Bintense already operates under a clear regulatory regime in the European Union. As Australia moves toward similar oversight, this structure becomes increasingly relevant for users in the region.
Serving Individuals and Businesses
For individuals in Australia, Bintense’s appeal lies in its straightforward process and transparent pricing. Without navigating multi-functional trading platforms, users can focus on purchasing or selling core digital assets efficiently.
Bintense offers a structured corporate onboarding process for businesses, including required documentation, bank invoicing, and direct settlement to pre-screened crypto wallets. This makes it particularly suitable for companies seeking compliant and well-documented access to Bitcoin or Ethereum.
Looking Ahead
With draft legislation on the horizon and a federal election approaching, Australia’s crypto environment is entering a change phase. Whether or not the current government stays in power, both major parties have expressed support for bringing regulatory clarity to the sector.
As more Australians—individuals and businesses alike—look for ways to engage with digital assets, services like Bintense are already prepared to meet expectations shaped by user demand and upcoming regulation. Operating with transparency, simplicity, and direct access, Bintense represents a practical option for those who want to participate in crypto without uncertain systems.
