The lack of recognition of Bank Indonesia (BI) to use Bitcoin virtual money do not hinder the instigators continue to conduct transactions.
In the middle of public ignorance about bitcoin, the number of users actually recorded an increase.
Currently in indonesia bitcoins is not so populer yet.
but, one a positive note, indonesia central bank did not have details policies in place to govern bitcoin
it could explain why the awareness about bitcoin is rising, and why there are more people using it there, basically in non regualted place bitcoin is rising more because there is less oppression from the government
so the theory about the fact that people do not want to use bitcoin because of their government's restriction is true, they actually want to use it but are intimidated by their legislation
Well not only Indonesia, but also there are several countries that banning bitcoin too. If you want the valid reason, maybe you can read it https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Legality_of_bitcoin_by_country
Since there were many crimes involved bitcoin, it will be harder for us to develop it in our country.
