Verifying your source of cryptocurrency
If you bought your cryptocurrency through us originally, no worries! Nothing further required. You’ll be able to sell the same amount back to us, no matter what the value has changed to. E.g. if you bought 3 BTC from us and 10 XRP you can sell back 3 BTC and 10 XRP regardless of how high they moon. If you received your cryptocurrency somewhere else, you’ll need to provide us with evidence to show where this has come from. Applications will be considered on a case-by-case basis, and we can’t provide any guarantees on what will be accepted or not. However, we can provide some guidance on the types of things we ask for:Sources of cryptocurrency | Examples of evidence |
Purchased on an offshore exchange | • Bank statements showing your AUD withdrawals out to that exchange |
Purchased through localbitcoins | • Bank statements showing your AUD payment to a localbitcoins seller |
Purchased on another Australian exchange | • Bank statements showing your withdrawals to that exchange |
The cryptocurrency was mined | • Your coins have no previous transaction history |

- Where is the cryptocurrency now? Provide addresses for the current wallet(s)
- How did it get there? Past blockchain history showing movements to get there
- How did you get it? Records of your trading history and bank history supporting
