About Bitcoin (BTC)
Bitcoin (BTC) is the original cryptocurrency, and on Digital Surge you can buy and hold it in AUD within minutes of verifying your account. It runs on its own native Bitcoin network, a Layer-1 blockchain that miners secure using Proof of Work, rather than sitting on top of another chain.
Because the network is the coin, buying BTC on Digital Surge means holding real bitcoin that you can keep in your account or withdraw to a wallet you control. You can also sell it back to Australian dollars or swap it for other supported coins whenever you like. For Bitcoin's history, how its network works and how to store it, see our how to buy Bitcoin guide.

Where to buy Bitcoin in Australia
You can buy Bitcoin in Australia on Digital Surge, an Australian-based exchange built for local buyers.

FAQ
Buying Bitcoin: FAQs
What is the minimum amount of Bitcoin I can buy?
You do not need to buy a whole bitcoin. You can start with a small amount that suits your budget: Digital Surge shows the current minimum order for BTC and the exact amount of Bitcoin your AUD will convert to before you confirm, so you can buy a fraction of a bitcoin rather than a whole one.
How long does it take to buy Bitcoin?
Once your Digital Surge account is verified and your AUD has landed, buying Bitcoin takes only a few moments. PayID deposits typically clear quickly during banking hours, and your BTC appears in your account balance as soon as the order is filled at the live AUD price.
Can I sell or swap Bitcoin on Digital Surge?
Yes. On Digital Surge you can sell your Bitcoin back to Australian dollars at the live BTC price whenever you like, then withdraw the AUD to your linked Australian bank account. BTC is also swap enabled, so you can move directly between Bitcoin and other supported coins from inside your account without cashing out to AUD first.
When is a good time to buy Bitcoin?
There is no single right time, and Bitcoin's price can move sharply in either direction. Many Australians check the live BTC price in AUD and the price chart on this page, then decide on their own timing.
What network does Digital Surge list Bitcoin on?
Bitcoin runs on its own native Bitcoin network, a Layer-1 blockchain that miners secure using Proof of Work, so the network is the coin rather than a token built on top of another chain. When you buy BTC on Digital Surge you are buying actual bitcoin on that network, which you can hold in your account or later withdraw to a wallet you control.
How do I check the live BTC price in AUD?
The live Bitcoin price in AUD updates in real time in the price widget and BTC to AUD converter at the top of this page. Enter any dollar figure or BTC amount to see the current conversion before you place an order, and use the AUD chart to view how the price has moved over your chosen timeframe.
