summary
Australia's crypto scene is smaller than the US but growing, with regulators removed double taxation on crypto purchases and active meetup and innovation bodies; a controversial encryption law passed late last year reaches broadly but its practical implementation and effects on crypto remain unclear; emphasis is on shifting public messaging from a liberty-only frame to include the security and safety benefits of privacy tech, with advocacy and education coming from people in roles like developer evangelist and former government advisors.
