Indonesia's Financial Services Authority (OJK) will take over regulation of the crypto industry from the commodities agency Bappebti. Crypto firms must undergo evaluation in a regulatory sandbox before being licensed to operate in the country. The OJK aims to prioritize consumer protection and education, and firms operating without evaluation in the sandbox will be considered illegal. The sandbox provides a safe and isolated environment for testing and innovation development, helping to enhance security and responsible management in the financial sector. Once under OJK's oversight, crypto assets will likely be reclassified as financial instruments.
