Beam price in Australian dollars

The Beam price shown above is quoted in Australian dollars and refreshes throughout the day. Over the last 24 hours BEAM is up 19.83%. Across the past week it is up 18.14%, and over 30 days it is up 63.93%.

Around A$183 million of BEAM changes hands globally in a typical 24-hour window, which matters more than most people expect: thin volume means wider spreads, so the price you pay on a small Australian exchange can differ from the headline figure. At a market value near A$188 million, Beam is a smaller crypto-asset outside the top 100 by market value.

Beam's highest recorded price is A$0.0665. BEAM currently trades about 94.5% below that level. A long way below an all-time high is not by itself a bargain — an asset can stay down for years, and some never recover.

Beam supply and market size

There are roughly 51.30 billion BEAM in circulation today. Beam has a hard cap of 58.47 billion BEAM, so no more can ever be created beyond that limit.

Supply matters because price alone tells you nothing about size. A coin trading at a few cents with hundreds of billions of units can be worth far more in total than a coin trading at several hundred dollars. Always compare market value, not unit price, when you are weighing one crypto-asset against another.

How to buy Beam in Australia

Buying BEAM with Australian dollars follows the same path as any other crypto-asset. You will need photo ID, an Australian bank account and an exchange that actually lists BEAM — not every AUD exchange does, especially outside the top 100.

  1. Pick an AUSTRAC-registered exchange that lists BEAM against AUD, and complete identity verification.
  2. Deposit Australian dollars by PayID or bank transfer. Card deposits are faster but usually cost more.
  3. Check the spread and the trading fee before ordering. A limit order gives you control over the price you pay.
  4. Place your order for Beam, then record the date, AUD amount and fees — you will need them at tax time.
  5. For anything you plan to hold, move BEAM off the exchange into a wallet you control.

Risks worth understanding before buying BEAM

Crypto prices move far more than shares or property. A 20% move in a week is unremarkable for BEAM, and drawdowns of 70-80% have happened across whole market cycles.

Beam is outside the top 100 by market value. Smaller assets are thinly traded, so getting out can cost noticeably more than getting in, and exchange delistings are a real possibility.

In Australia, disposing of BEAM — selling it, swapping it for another coin, or spending it — is a capital gains tax event. Keep records from your first purchase; reconstructing them years later is painful.
