A smarter approach for SMSFs and private wealth in crypto
Brisbane, Australia - 23 June 2025
Syla is proud to announce a new partnership with Stormrake, a full-service crypto brokerage based in Melbourne. This collaboration is tailored to meet the needs of Australia’s growing base of high-net-worth individuals, Self-Managed Super Funds (SMSFs), and private wealth clients who demand a seamless, compliant, and expert-led crypto experience.
Access to crypto has improved. Managing it hasn’t
Over the past few years, Self-Managed Super Funds, family offices, and high-net-worth individuals have increasingly entered the crypto space. But while access to digital assets has become more mainstream, navigating the crypto landscape with structure, compliance, and confidence remains a challenge.
For private wealth clients, the roadblocks are clear:
- No personalised execution or portfolio guidance
- Assets fragmented across wallets, exchanges, and custody providers
- Manual record-keeping and end-of-year reporting stress
- Uncertainty around SMSF obligations and ATO expectations
The issue isn’t just a lack of tools, it’s a lack of integrated, trusted infrastructure designed for how private wealth actually operates.
A joint solution from Syla and Stormrake
That’s why Stormrake and Syla have teamed up, to help sophisticated Australian investors take control of their crypto strategy, from trade execution to tax reporting.
- Stormrake offers a full-service crypto brokerage experience: broker-assisted trading, best-market pricing, and secure cold-storage custody.
- Syla provides streamlined crypto tax software, purpose-built for Australian rules, with support for SMSFs, companies, trusts, and private investors.
Together, we’re making it easier for Australian private wealth clients to invest with confidence and report with clarity.
“We’ve seen more SMSFs and high-net-worth investors entering crypto each year, but many are frustrated by the lack of tailored support when it comes to managing their investments and tax obligations. This partnership brings two specialist services together to solve that problem properly.” — Nick Christie, Co-Founder of Syla
A better experience for SMSFs and private wealth
Stormrake’s clients already benefit from personalised broker support, deep liquidity access, and secure custody. Now, they can also simplify their tax process with Syla, using the Activity Statement reports provided by Stormrake to generate accurate, ATO-compliant reports.
With Syla, clients can:
- Import Stormrake data in one click
- Automatically calculate capital gains and losses
- Generate audit-ready tax reports for individuals, companies, trusts, and SMSFs
- Apply Syla’s proprietary tax optimisation to reduce tax where possible
