Crypto is maturing as an asset class, and the future will demand local players have the same scale, governance and transparency expected of companies operating in public markets,” Wang added.Founded in 2017, Coinstash currently serves more than 50,000 users and offers access to Australia’s largest range of digital assets, including Bitcoin, Ethereum and 1,000+ cryptocurrencies. The company has invested heavily in compliance and security (including 1:1 asset reserves) as the Australian crypto sector adapts to a tightening regulatory landscape.The company’s total capital raised now exceeds AU$8 million, including AU$3.5 million from earlier rounds.

Coinstash Launches Exclusive Private Service as HNWI Demand Grows

We’re proud to name Coinstash the winner of the ‘Altcoins’ award in the <a href="https://www.finder.com.au/finder-awards/product-awards/crypto-trading-platform-awards" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">Finder Crypto Trading Platform Awards 2024</a>. This is the second year running that we’ve given this award to Coinstash - a testament to the unrivaled range of tradable coins it offers to its users.&nbsp; Coinstash currently lists more than 1,000 cryptocurrencies, more than 5 times the average <a href="https://www.finder.com.au/cryptocurrency/exchanges" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">exchange in Australia</a>, according to our research.&nbsp; We’d especially like to highlight Coinstash’s DeFi Connector feature, which lets users trade cryptocurrencies across different blockchains including Avalanche, Arbitrum and Optimism.&nbsp;&nbsp; As a result, Coinstash users can trade an extensive range of decentralised finance (DeFi) coins that aren’t generally offered by other exchanges.&nbsp; Normally users would need to create their own wallets and interact with decentralised exchanges (DEX) on-chain in order to trade many of these coins. This requires a degree of technical proficiency that the average investor may be uncomfortable with. Instead, Coinstash has made trading these coins accessible, giving investors more opportunities and the chance to better diversify their portfolios.&nbsp; Congratulations to Coinstash from everyone here at Finder.&nbsp; The Finder Crypto Trading Platform Awards 2024 recognises the best crypto trading platforms in Australia across 6 categories. To determine the "best" crypto platforms for Australians, our experts analysed 12 months of data from 16 exchanges across more than 45 categories.For more information on the awards program and the full methodology, visit: <a href="https://www.finder.com.au/finder-awards/product-awards/crypto-trading-platform-awards" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">https://www.finder.com.au/finder-awards/product-awards/crypto-trading-platform-awards</a>
