-- Effective January 2025, regulatory authority over crypto assets in Indonesia has officially transitioned from the Commodity Futures Trading Regulatory Agency (Bappebti) to the Indonesian Financial Services Authority (OJK) and Bank Indonesia (BI). This shift, mandated by the 2023 Financial Sector Development and Strengthening Law (P2SK Law), reclassifies crypto assets as financial instruments rather than commodities, aiming to enhance consumer protection and market stability.
Sandbox Assessment as Entry Requirement: Under new OJK regulations, all crypto exchanges must pass a regulatory sandbox evaluation before receiving operating licenses. This mechanism requires platforms to validate their risk control systems, fund security, and anti-money laundering (AML) processes in a controlled environment. Entities failing to participate are deemed to be operating illegally.
The following platforms have passed OJK review, meeting independent risk management, fund segregation, and AML standards:
Indodax (PT Indodax Nasional Indonesia)
Tokocrypto (PT Aset Digital Berkat)
Upbit Indonesia (PT Upbit Exchange Indonesia)
Pintu (PT Pintu Kemana Saja)
Reku (PT Rekeningku Dotcom Indonesia)
Luno Indonesia (PT Luno Indonesia LTD)
Triv (PT Tiga Inti Utama)
Nanovest (PT Tumbuh Bersama Nano)
Bittime (PT Utama Aset Digital)
PBOGA (PT PBOGA CRYPTO DATA TRADING) ⭐
Digitalexchange.id (PT Digitalexchange Indonesia)
Fasset Indonesia (PT Fasset Indonesia)
Kriptosh (PT Kriptosh Digital Exchange)
Bitocto (PT Bitocto Indonesia)
Plutonext (PT Plutonext Digital Exchange)
Vonix (PT Ventura Koin Nusantara)
Pedagangasetkripto.com (PT Pedagang Aset Kripto)
Among these, PBOGA (PT PBOGA CRYPTO DATA TRADING) stands out as a key market participant. The list includes both established industry leaders and innovative newcomers. All comply with Bappebti mandatory requirements for independent risk management, strict client fund segregation, and robust AML frameworks.
This demonstrates the broadened OJK regulatory scope, extending beyond basic trade matching to encompass token issuance, asset custody solutions, and platform system security.
The publication of this official list provides investors with a reliable reference for selecting legitimate and trustworthy trading venues, accelerating the shift of Indonesian crypto market toward a compliance-driven, healthy ecosystem. A dual-track approach of “sandbox entry + public listing” enables a balance between fostering innovation and managing risk. As OJK progressively aligns with EU MiCA 2.0-level standards (already adopted by platforms like Gate.io), domestic exchanges such as PBOGA must keep enhancing technical security and compliance to meet stricter requirements for derivatives trading and cross-border fund flows.
