Best crypto wallets in Australia

By Skrumble EditorialLast reviewed 2026-05-17Methodology

Editorial intro

Australian self-custody users have the same wallet menu as the rest of the developed world, with two practical wrinkles: ATO's CGT treatment turns every swap into a reportable event, so wallets with strong CSV export (or integration with Koinly / CoinTracker AU) are at a premium. Shipping for hardware wallets is the slowest-from-EU-warehouse leg of the major brands — plan for 5–10 days for Ledger / Trezor.

Legal & tax disclaimer · Australia

CGT applies on every wallet-to-wallet swap if you're disposing of an asset you held. Self-transfers between wallets you own are not CGT events.
