Platform Security and Audits

Platform Security and Audits


Safeguarding digital assets is more than a feature at Coinstash, it's a commitment woven into every layer of the platform.


From the moment users sign up, they’re met with a secure experience designed to keep accounts and transactions safe. Multi-factor authentication is standard, along with biometric login options, email verification, and other layers of defense that give users peace of mind every time they interact with the platform.


Account security goes further with advanced access controls. Users can lock down activity by whitelisting wallet addresses, linking trusted accounts, and tightening transaction permissions, empowering them to actively manage risk.


Coinstash extends its security measures into the DeFi ecosystem with its DeFi Connector, a feature that enables users interact with on-chain DeFi tokens without sacrificing the security of the platform. This integration strikes a rare balance between ease of access and control.


Coinstash also places a heavy emphasis on the security and integrity of our platform assets. Every dollar and token of our customers on the platform is backed 1:1 by reserves, ensuring that customers always have access to their money. To enhance platform asset security, Coinstash has partnered with trusted custodians like Fireblocks and Ledger, using their infrastructure to minimise risks from breaches or operational errors.


As a regulated entity, Coinstash adheres to Australian laws and is registered with AUSTRAC. It undergoes regular third party audits and submits financial reports to ASIC, making transparency and compliance core to its operations. Coinstash is currently the only Australian exchange that provides customers with access to audited account statements, available for review here.


Finally, real human support is never far away. With a dedicated team available seven days a week through the platform’s live chat, users aren’t left navigating issues on their own.
