According to the ATO, the volume of crypto activists in SMSF decreased from 3.119 billion Australian dollars ($ 2.02 billion) in June 2024 to 3.018 billion ($ 1.96 billion) in June 2025. The half -year report of the regulator says that a decrease in the share of cryptocurrencies in the pension savings of the Australians occurred despite the rapid increase in the prices of most popular digital assets, such as bitcoin and ether. This fact, according to experts of the ATO, demonstrates a more mature and balanced approach to SMSF investors to the problems of the volatility of the crypto market.
According to the tax department, the young Australians of the Z generation Z (18–24) and millennials (25–40 years), which actively integrate cryptocurrency into pension savings through self -government SMSF funds, face the cost of life costs and prefer the cost of the cost of shares and real estate.
The conclusions of the experts of the ATO indicate a gradual change in the generational approach. Despite the fact that this category of citizens of the country is still considering cryptocurrency investments as one of the ways to get ahead of inflation, the risks of the volatility of the crypto, a lack of knowledge and regulatory barriers encourage them to caution.
Earlier, the Australian unit of the largest crypto -tank Binance received an order from Australia’s financial intelligence (Austrac) on an independent audit of its operating activity in the country.
