Coinbase and OKX Target Australia’s Pension Funds, Aiming to Integrate Crypto

Two prominent cryptocurrency exchanges, Coinbase and OKX, are spearheading a major push to integrate digital assets into Australia’s massive pension system. Their focus: self-managed superannuation funds (SMSFs), which hold approximately 25% of the country’s pension pool and manage over A$1.1 trillion in capital. The aim is to offer cryptocurrency investments through these funds, starting as early as June 2025. This strategic move marks a significant step toward mainstream adoption of crypto within regulated retirement savings, potentially opening a new institutional gateway for digital asset investment.
