Crypto News - Posted on 09 June 2026 Reading time 5 minutes

Indonesia’s crypto asset industry has continued to demonstrate strong growth throughout 2026. The Financial Services Authority (OJK) reported that spot-market crypto asset transactions nearly reached Rp100 trillion within the first four months of the year, supported by the ongoing increase in the number of domestic crypto investors.

 

Adi Budiarso, Executive Head of Supervision for Financial Sector Technology Innovation, Digital Financial Assets, and Crypto Assets at OJK, revealed that crypto asset transaction value in April 2026 reached Rp22.98 trillion. This figure represented a 2.86% increase compared with March 2026, when transaction value stood at Rp22.34 trillion.

 

As a result, cumulative year-to-date (YTD) crypto asset transactions through April 2026 reached Rp99.01 trillion, placing them only slightly below the Rp100 trillion milestone.

 

Speaking during the Press Conference on the Financial Services Sector Assessment and OJK Policy Outcomes of the May 2026 Board Meeting held on Friday (June 5, 2026), Adi stated that despite fluctuations in transaction values, consumer confidence in Indonesia’s digital financial asset ecosystem, including crypto assets, remains well maintained.

 

Number of Crypto Investors Continues to Rise

In addition to growing transaction activity, the number of crypto asset investors in Indonesia has continued to expand.

 

According to OJK data, the number of digital financial asset and crypto asset consumer accounts reached 21.70 million in April 2026. This represented an increase of 1.57% compared with the 21.37 million accounts recorded in March 2026.

 

The increase in investor participation indicates that public interest in crypto assets remains strong despite market volatility during the early months of the year. The growing user base also suggests that crypto asset adoption in Indonesia continues to advance.

 

Consistent with these developments, OJK believes that public confidence in the country’s digital financial asset and crypto asset ecosystem remains resilient amid ongoing market fluctuations.

 

Indonesia’s Crypto Ecosystem Continues to Mature

Beyond the growth in transactions and investor participation, Indonesia’s crypto industry ecosystem is also expanding in terms of both available products and market participants.

 

As of April 2026, a total of 1,255 crypto assets and 40 digital financial asset derivative products were available for trading in Indonesia.

 

From an institutional perspective, OJK has granted licenses to 32 entities operating within the national crypto asset trading ecosystem. These include two crypto exchanges, two clearing institutions, two custodians, and 26 Digital Financial Asset Traders (PAKD).

 

In addition, the regulator has approved seven supporting institutions, all of which operate as Payment Service Providers (PJP).

 

OJK is currently reviewing several new licensing applications, including one prospective crypto exchange, one prospective clearing institution, one prospective custodian, and two Prospective Digital Financial Asset Traders (CPAKD).

 

In the latest development, OJK officially granted a business license to PT Luno Indonesia Ltd. as a Digital Financial Asset Trader (PAKD) on Sunday (May 25, 2026). The approval forms part of the broader effort to strengthen the industry and support the regulatory transition of crypto asset supervision under OJK’s authority.

 

Alongside the approval granted to Luno, OJK also rejected the license application of one prospective crypto asset trading entity. The regulator emphasized that the rejected company remains obligated to fulfill all rights and responsibilities owed to its consumers in accordance with applicable regulations.
