IMPORTANT: BIP-110 activation reminder⚒️

HardBlock stackers — apologies for the extra updates recently. It has been a busy few weeks in Bitcoin, and we want to make sure everyone is prepared for the upcoming BIP-110 activation window.

The activation is currently expected around 7–8 August, at or before block height 961,632.

The key takeaway: If you intend to move your bitcoin into self-custody before the activation window, consider doing so today so that your transaction is completed before any temporary maintenance period begins.

If you intend to leave your funds in your HardBlock account, please be patient while we monitor the activation event and any possible chain-split outcomes.

During the activation period, HardBlock may temporarily:

• Pause bitcoin deposits and withdrawals
• Pause the buying and selling of bitcoin
• Require additional confirmations when services resume
• Stop automatically crediting incoming transactions

Our website will likely be placed into maintenance mode during the activation period. This could last approximately 12–24 hours, but it may take longer if the outcome is not immediately clear.

We recommend avoiding unnecessary transactions close to the activation window and monitoring our maintenance page and X account for updates.

Please contact our support team if you have any questions or need assistance. 🟧

A Sydney house used to cost around 111 Bitcoin.

By early 2026, it cost around 18 Bitcoin.

In Australian dollars, homes got more expensive.
In Bitcoin, they got dramatically cheaper.

That does not mean housing stopped being valuable. It means the money you use to measure value matters.

This is the problem most Australians feel but struggle to name:

You work hard.
You save carefully.
You try to get ahead.
And somehow the goalposts keep moving.

Inflation, debt, tax complexity, housing scarcity, and shifting rules all make the old savings bargain feel harder to trust.

Bitcoin changes the ruler.

Australians don’t need another lecture about budgeting.

Most people already know they need to save.

The harder question is:

What kind of money are they saving in? 🪖💸🟧

When you buy Bitcoin, one of the first questions is: where should I keep it?

That may sound technical, but custody is really about trust, responsibility, and control.

As Australian Bitcoin businesses adapt to new compliance requirements, including Travel Rule obligations from 1 July 2026, customers may notice more questions being asked when withdrawing Bitcoin. That makes one thing even clearer:

Everyone who owns Bitcoin should learn the basics of self-custody.
