Crypto news update: February 2026

Despite dipping in September, the price of Bitcoin is up over 8% in the last month with Ether following at 4%. Meanwhile, Altcoins have been having a moment with BNB one of the top performers, jumping over 20% in the last 30 days alone, XRP up 6% and SOL having jumped 11%.

Meanwhile crypto exchanges in Australia will soon need to hold a financial services license (AFSL) under new draft legislation. Once rolled out, it means exchanges will be held to the same reporting and compliance standards as superfunds and online brokers.
