SOL FAQs

What makes Solana different from Ethereum?
Both are smart contract platforms, but Solana was built for raw speed and low cost — processing tens of thousands of transactions per second at a fraction of a cent each. Solana achieves this through a unique mechanism called Proof of History. The trade-off is that Solana has faced occasional network outages and is considered less decentralised than Ethereum. For Australian investors, both are widely available through AUSTRAC-registered brokers and exchanges.
Can you earn passive income with Solana in Australia?
Yes — SOL can be staked to help secure the network and earn rewards. For Australian investors, staking rewards are treated as ordinary income by the ATO at the AUD value on the day you receive them — not as a capital gain. This means they're taxed at your full marginal rate with no 12-month discount available on the income portion. Keep records of the AUD value of every reward received.
How do I buy Solana in Australia?
SOL is available through AUSTRAC-registered brokers and exchanges including Coinbase, Kraken, and CoinSpot, with direct AUD funding via PayID or bank transfer. For investors who want guidance on timing, position sizing, and how SOL fits their broader portfolio, working with a dedicated personal broker like UpTrade is a more supported approach.‍
Do I pay tax on Solana in Australia?
Yes. The ATO treats SOL as a CGT asset — every sale, trade, or exchange is a taxable event. If you hold for more than 12 months before selling, you're entitled to a 50% CGT discount on your gain. Staking rewards are taxed separately as ordinary income when received. The ATO actively data-matches with Australian exchanges, so accurate record-keeping from day one is essential.
