    Coinbase is developing a service that will target Australia's self-managed pensions sector, according to the exchange's Asia-Pacific Managing Director John O'Loghlen. The move comes as self-managed funds in Australia have increasingly held crypto, with nearly A$1 billion ($664 million) allocated to crypto as of the latest data from the Australian Taxation Office. O'Loghlen stated that Coinbase's offering will aim to service these clients on a one-off basis and retain their business.

Protecting investors is the mission of the US Securities and Exchange Commission, but SAB 121 does the opposite by preventing heavily regulated US banks from mass custody of digital assets. In addition, Wiley Nickel criticized the SEC for bypassing the rule-making process when issuing SAB 121, believing that the purpose of the cryptocurrency accounting policy is to clarify existing policies, not to create new ones.
