OKX Targets Australia’s $4 Trillion Retirement Market With Crypto SMSF Platform

Crypto exchange OKX has launched a platform for self-managed superannuation funds (SMSFs) in Australia. Giving trustees direct access to digital assets with custody, multi-signature security, and proof-of-reserves across 22 tokens.
CEO Kate Cooper noted that SMSF crypto holdings have jumped sevenfold since 2021 to nearly A$1.8 billion, stressing the need for “enterprise-level solutions” as trustees manage more money than many sovereign wealth funds.
Despite rapid growth, crypto remains under 0.3% of Australia’s A$4.3 trillion pension pool. SMSFs are still heavily weighted toward stocks, cash, and property, but OKX expects thousands of funds to onboard in the next two years. The move reflects crypto’s status as the fastest-growing slice of superannuation. Even as broader SMSF assets grow at a slower pace.
