🚨🟧 HardBlock, the Travel Rule, and Self-Custody: What’s Changing 👀

From 1 July 2026, HardBlock will be required to comply with AUSTRAC’s Travel Rule obligations.

Rather than build around withdrawals from one custodial platform to another, we’re choosing the more Bitcoin-aligned path.

HardBlock will no longer support withdrawals directly to custodial wallets. Withdrawals to self-custodial wallets will continue with minimal changes.

Why? Because Bitcoin is most powerful when you control the keys.

HardBlock exists to help Australians save in Bitcoin for the long term - not just hold an account balance.

As always: Not your keys, not your coins.

Bitcoin gave people control over their wealth. But control without recovery can become fragility.

So your Bitcoin doesn’t just stay secure today.
It remains accessible tomorrow.
