Indonesia is on the verge of launching a national cryptocurrency exchange, taking a bold step towards embracing digital assets. According to local news sources, the revolutionary platform, scheduled to be introduced in July 2023, is managed by the Indonesian Commodity Futures Trading Regulatory Agency (Bappebti).

Didid Noordiatmoko, the head of Bappebti, stated that the upcoming exchange will be the sole platform for cryptocurrency transactions in Indonesia. This significant move is expected to put Indonesia at the forefront of cryptocurrency adoption and pave a new roadmap for the country’s digital asset sector.

The launch of the national exchange is the result of meticulous preparation and planning, including comprehensive system integration tests between traders, exchanges, and custodians. Didid emphasized that strict Know Your Customer (KYC) procedures are being followed to ensure compliance with regulations.

Trading on the exchange will be facilitated through an integrated application, a technological capability of Bappebti, which has undergone comprehensive testing and proven effectiveness.

Aligning Local Transactions with Global Trends

As part of its strategic approach, Bappebti aims to limit cryptocurrency sales to local transactions while simultaneously adapting to emerging trends in the international crypto market. Regulatory control of cryptocurrency prices, subject to Bappebti’s approval, will be a key component of this initiative.

Didid conveyed these developments to Trade Minister Zulkifli Hasan. Unless further instructions are received, Bappebti will grant permission to registered traders to sign up for the exchange within a one-month period.

The idea of a national cryptocurrency exchange took shape in 2021 through a collaboration between a state-owned telecommunications company in Indonesia and the renowned exchange Binance. In 2022, Binance expanded its role in the project by increasing its stake in the Indonesian crypto asset exchange Tokocrypto.

Despite a few setbacks and delays, Indonesia is now on the threshold of a significant transformation in the crypto scene. As the countdown begins, the national exchange has the potential to propel Indonesia to the forefront of the global crypto economy.
