Number of Crypto Investors in Indonesia Surpasses 20 Million

2 min read
  • In 2025, crypto trading volume in Indonesia declined.
  • However, the number of crypto asset investors exceeded 20 million.

The number of crypto investors in Indonesia is increasing despite a decline in transaction volumes. This was stated by Hasan Fauzi, a member of the Indonesian Financial Services Authority (OJK), CNBC reports.

According to the regulator’s representative, in 2025 the total volume of cryptocurrency transactions amounted to 482 trillion Indonesian rupiah (about $29 billion). This is below the 2024 figure, when it exceeded 650 trillion rupiah (more than $39 billion).

At the same time, the number of users investing in digital assets, on the contrary, continues to grow. As of the end of December 2025, more than 20.19 million investors were registered in Indonesia.

Fawzi noted that most new investors are from the younger generation. In his view, this is due to the country’s demographic structure, where a significant share of the population is of working age.

In addition, despite the decline in trading volumes in 2025, crypto tax revenues continued to rise. According to Fawzi, in November alone, budget revenues totaled 719.61 billion rupiah (more than $43 million). He emphasized that, with the tax rate unchanged, this points to improved efficiency in oversight and reporting across the sector.

OJK hopes that steady user growth and higher tax revenues will serve as a signal for market participants to more actively comply with legal requirements, including tax obligations.

Earlier, we reported that Indonesian authorities plan to explore the idea of creating a bitcoin reserve and launching cryptocurrency mining using hydropower and geothermal resources.

UK Looks to US to Adopt More Crypto-Friendly Approach

The post UK Looks to US to Adopt More Crypto-Friendly Approach appeared on BitcoinEthereumNews.com. The UK and US are reportedly preparing to deepen cooperation on digital assets, with Britain looking to copy the Trump administration’s crypto-friendly stance in a bid to boost innovation.  UK Chancellor Rachel Reeves and US Treasury Secretary Scott Bessent discussed on Tuesday how the two nations could strengthen their coordination on crypto, the Financial Times reported on Tuesday, citing people familiar with the matter.  The discussions also involved representatives from crypto companies, including Coinbase, Circle Internet Group and Ripple, with executives from the Bank of America, Barclays and Citi also attending, according to the report. The agreement was made “last-minute” after crypto advocacy groups urged the UK government on Thursday to adopt a more open stance toward the industry, claiming its cautious approach to the sector has left the country lagging in innovation and policy.  Source: Rachel Reeves Deal to include stablecoins, look to unlock adoption Any deal between the countries is likely to include stablecoins, the Financial Times reported, an area of crypto that US President Donald Trump made a policy priority and in which his family has significant business interests. The Financial Times reported on Monday that UK crypto advocacy groups also slammed the Bank of England’s proposal to limit individual stablecoin holdings to between 10,000 British pounds ($13,650) and 20,000 pounds ($27,300), claiming it would be difficult and expensive to implement. UK banks appear to have slowed adoption too, with around 40% of 2,000 recently surveyed crypto investors saying that their banks had either blocked or delayed a payment to a crypto provider.  Many of these actions have been linked to concerns over volatility, fraud and scams. The UK has made some progress on crypto regulation recently, proposing a framework in May that would see crypto exchanges, dealers, and agents treated similarly to traditional finance firms, with…
