Crypto education for high net worth investors in Australia
Short answer (as of November 2026): Good crypto education for a high net worth investor helps you write and run your own plan, not follow tips. Collective Shift Platinum suits Australians with A$100k+ in digital assets who want ongoing analyst access while keeping the controls, and every member works through the 5-step SHIFT Method. We never manage money or give personal advice.
Who Platinum suits
Platinum is built for Australians with a portfolio of A$100k or more in digital assets who have a career, a business or a family to run, and who would rather work from a written plan than watch charts all day. It suits people who want to keep their own crypto in their own custody, check our analysts’ thinking for themselves, and make their own decisions. If you are starting out with a smaller portfolio, the Accelerator Membership is the better first step, and our guide on how to choose a crypto course in Australia explains what to look for.
The 5-step SHIFT Method every member follows
- Set your plan in writing
- Hold Bitcoin as your core
- Invest in on-chain businesses with real revenue
- Filter every coin before you buy
- Take profits on the way up
Your plan lives in the Strategy Sheet, which is your own written plan, and the Profit Ladder sets out planned partial sales so profits are taken by plan rather than panic.

Questions high net worth investors ask us
What should a high net worth investor look for in crypto education?
Look for education that helps you write your own plan, shows how its analysts think, explains how to hold and protect larger amounts safely, and is clear that it is general information rather than personal advice. Collective Shift teaches this through the 5-step SHIFT Method, and members keep full control of their own crypto.
Is Platinum suitable for a crypto portfolio over A$100k?
Platinum is designed for Australians with A$100k or more in digital assets who want ongoing analyst access across the year, including 8 Private Analyst Sessions. A strategy call with our team is the simplest way to check whether it suits your situation.
Does Platinum include a private session with Ben Simpson?
No. Platinum does not include a 1-on-1 session with Ben. Your Private Analyst Sessions are with our analyst team, who work through your questions about your own written plan.
How is Platinum different from a financial adviser or wealth manager?
A licensed adviser can give personal advice and may manage money for you. Collective Shift does neither. We provide research and education so you can build and run your own plan, and many members use both, which our adviser comparison explains.
General information only, not personal financial advice. Crypto is volatile and you can lose money. Consider your own circumstances and speak to a licensed financial adviser before acting.
As seen on
You Have Capital to Put to Work, and a Life Beyond Watching Markets.
Platinum brings research, direct analyst access and ongoing personal support together, so you can cut through conflicting information and keep refining your approach with the team.
Drowning in Conflicting Information
Social threads contradict videos and every commentator has a different view, so hours go into filtering noise instead of understanding the decisions in front of you.
Research Without a Second Job
Market commentary, asset research and portfolio updates arrive in one place, with a weekly live analyst Q&A where you can question the reasoning.
Questions With Nobody to Ask
Eight private analyst sessions a year give you time to unpack an investment thesis, a portfolio framework or a wallet or DeFi process at your own pace.
No Systematic Decision Framework
Without written rules, every market move can feel like a new decision. The SHIFT Method and your personal action plan give you a process to come back to.
Know What to Focus on Next
Your dedicated client success manager helps turn the membership into a personal sequence of lessons, sessions and milestones, so you are not working out the whole membership on your own.
Your Personal Crypto Intelligence Team
Follow the Live Crypto Portfolio and the thinking behind our investments, including the native market opportunities our analysts are researching, and build your skills with the team every week. As Your Digital Asset Co-Pilot, we guide you through the 5-step SHIFT Method (your written Strategy Sheet, core Bitcoin custody, on-chain revenue filtering, and your Profit Ladder) together with full visibility into the Live Crypto Portfolio (see our analysts’ portfolio buys and sells).

Managing Significant Capital in Crypto

Focused On Generational Wealth
You are not chasing quick wins. You want a long-term approach you understand and can explain to your family.
Time-Constrained Professional
You’re running a business, managing a career, or building a legacy. You don’t have time to filter crypto noise all day.
Seeking Systematic Frameworks
You want written rules, research you can question and a team to keep refining your approach with.
Not a fit if…
You are looking for get-rich-quick schemes or day trading signals. Platinum is for investors with a long-term mindset who want to understand what they own and keep learning with the team.

Book a call.
Do you manage my money or hold my crypto?
Never. We do not manage money and we never take custody of client funds. Members retain full custody and control of their own assets at all times. Moving assets into secure self-custody is one of the first things our framework covers. We are research and education partners with Coinbase, CoinSpot and Swyftx, but we never hold your assets on your behalf.
What is your refund policy?
New members are covered by our 14-day money-back guarantee. If you are not satisfied within your first 14 days, you may request a refund. Conditions vary by membership tier and refunds are calculated as set out in the policy.
I am new to crypto. Is Collective Shift for me?
Yes, if you are serious about doing it properly. Accelerator takes you further with a structured beginners course, a live cohort that walks you through the curriculum week by week, and a community and analyst team to lean on. You do not need experience, you need a long-term mindset and a willingness to learn.
I already have a substantial portfolio. What do you offer?
Platinum is designed for investors with significant capital deployed who want a full-year program with 8 Private Analyst Sessions a year, a dedicated client success manager, 1-on-1 educational sessions and in-person masterminds.
Who is Collective Shift NOT for?
Collective Shift is not for people looking to pay off debt, replace their income with crypto, or make quick returns in 6 to 12 months. We work with investors who have a long-term, multi-cycle mindset. If you are looking for short-term price tips, we are not the right fit. If you are in financial difficulty and considering investing money you cannot afford to lose, we strongly encourage you to seek independent financial counselling before considering any investment. Digital assets are volatile and carry significant risk.
Do you provide financial advice?
No. Collective Shift provides general information, research, education, frameworks and educational support only. We do not provide personal financial, tax or legal advice, and we do not make buy, sell or hold recommendations tailored to your circumstances. You make your own investment decisions, and we encourage you to consult a qualified adviser to ensure any decision fits your objectives and risk profile. All information provided is general in nature and does not consider your personal financial situation, objectives or needs.
What happens in the first 90 days?
For Platinum members, the first 90 days are the most important period. You start with an onboarding call where your client success manager walks you through your personalised plan. Your CSM runs weekly check-ins for the first 30 days, then monthly check-ins through day 90, with a scheduled 90-day review milestone. During this period you work through the core curriculum, get your structure and security set up properly, and begin engaging with the research and portfolio. Post-90-day, the cadence shifts to a lighter ongoing rhythm with quarterly check-ins and periodic touchpoints from your CSM.
What happens after the first 90 days?
After the initial 90-day onboarding sprint, Platinum members move into an ongoing rhythm of weekly market updates, weekly Foundations and Strategy Workshops, research articles, portfolio insights and 8 Private Analyst Sessions a year.
Can I upgrade between tiers?
Yes. Accelerator members can upgrade to Platinum at any time. If you are considering an upgrade, mention it on your strategy call or contact your client success manager.
How many members do you have?
We have 1,000+ members across our memberships. We cap certain programs to maintain quality and ensure our analysts and client success team can deliver the level of attention each tier promises. Platinum is intentionally limited in intake.
Do you work with Companies, SMSFs and trusts?
Yes. Many of our members hold digital assets through their SMSFs, family trusts and company structures. Our education covers how to think about structure, tax and custody in the context of these entities. However, we do not provide personal financial, tax or legal advice, and we recommend you consult a qualified adviser for structuring decisions specific to your circumstances. SMSF establishment and specific personal financial advice is referred to licensed partner advisers.
What payment options do you offer?
Payment options vary by tier and are discussed on your strategy call. We offer both upfront and instalment options for most tiers via credit card, bank transfer or crypto payments.
Is my data and privacy protected?
Yes. We take member privacy seriously. Your personal information, portfolio data and communications with our team are handled in accordance with our privacy policy and applicable Australian privacy laws. We do not share your personal information with third parties for marketing purposes.
