Why blockchain matters in Indonesia

In partnership withTokocrypto

In Indonesia, all you need to invest in cryptocurrency is a smartphone, an internet connection, and US$0.75.

Cryptocurrency has taken off in the country: 7.4 million of its citizens owned crypto assets as of 2021. Itโ€™s also just the beginning of blockchain technologyโ€™s growing prevalence in Indonesia.

Blockchain, which provides a shared record of information maintained and updated by a network of computers instead of a centralized authority, has the potential to address the many hurdles that Indonesia faces across different industries, such as financial services and intellectual property. Letโ€™s take a closer look at how the technology can do that.


Tokocrypto is a crypto asset digital exchange in Indonesia that aims to be more than just a trading platform by creating Tokoverse, an ecosystem of blockchain services.
