To reshape the landscape of the cryptocurrency industry in
Indonesia, the Financial Services Authority (OJK) has announced that crypto
firms will be subject to evaluation in a regulatory sandbox before they can
obtain licenses to operate. This development comes as part of the transition of
regulatory oversight from the commodities and futures trading regulator,
Bappebti, to OJK, scheduled to take place in January 2025.
Under the new regulatory framework, firms offering crypto
services in Indonesia will be required to undergo evaluation within the
regulatory sandbox. Failure to comply with this prerequisite will result in
such firms being deemed to operate illegally within the country.
A regulatory sandkasse functions as a controlled environment
where innovative financial products and services can be tested to ensure their
safety and reliability. It provides a platform for trial runs, allowing
regulators to assess the potential risks and benefits associated with new
offerings, thereby enhancing security and responsible management within the
finanssektoren.

The impending shift of regulatory supervision from Bappebti
to OJK marks a significant transition for the crypto industry in Indonesia.
Currently classified as commodities, krypto assets fall under the purview of
Bappebti. However, with OJK taking over supervision, it is anticipated that
crypto assets will be reclassified as financial instruments.

“This aligns with our spirit at OJK, particularly in

at a media briefing. “We expect our regulatory mechanisms to directly
impact the prevention of fraudulent investments.”
