It just a bad news for all of bitcoin community and user but I think it will again open for Indonesian people .
Yes, it's really bad news for all of bitcoin community. I can't know whether it will come back again but i hope it come back again

Most of the countries that have come out against bitcoin are really a joke because they can’t have any effect but Indonesia is different.

Indonesia has the largest economy in Southeast Asia and is one of the new emerging market economies of the world. The country is also a member of G-20 major economies and classified as a newly industrialised country. It is the sixteenth largest economy in the world by nominal GDP and is the seventh largest in terms of PPP.

Here’s the reason they can’t afford to lose control by allowing the widespread use of bitcoin. In the aftermath of the financial and economic crisis that began in mid-1997 the government took custody of a significant portion of private sector assets through acquisition of nonperforming bank loans and corporate assets through the debt restructuring process and the companies in custody were sold for privatization several years later. Since 1999 the economy has recovered and growth has accelerated to over 4–6% in recent years.

Like southern korea, the decision of banned bitcoin in the country of Indonesia is also not final. And I think the Indonesian bank as the central bank of the country only prohibits all forms of bitcoin transactions as a means of payment that replaces the position of rupiah as the official currency, the Indonesian bank does not prohibit bitcoin to be asset

Hi,

Sorry to say so but the Indonesian government cannot ban bitcoin. I understand the idea, they want to prevent people from using it so they make transactons illegal and prevent people from using it as a currency... on the national territory. Which actually means nothing when considering and alt coin.

Again, I don't say that this will have no consequence, but I am completely sure that they will not be able to stop bitcoin from spreading in use in the country. However, as a matter of fact, it will not be possible to make such transactions through an Indonesian IP. This is not really an issue, right? Wink

Exactly. Also you can cross the border and do your thing.

Here is a short English summary of the BI press release with most important points highlighted: Bank Indonesia Bans Bitcoin And Other Cryptocurrencies

According to the statement, these currencies allow people to engage in wrongful acts such as money laundering and funding terrorism. BI claimed that cryptocurrencies are a bubble which will damage financial stability, and will ultimately hurl the society into an economic disaster. Starting today, the central bank will not process any transactions made in Bitcoin or other cryptocurrencies.

They probably ban it as they see it as a threat for their country. I notice that the number of Indonesian users here in the forum is continuously growing which indicates that cryptosystem is now becoming popular to them. But I doubt if Indonesian really invest or just interested from a small payment and airdrops offered here in the forum.

There were increasing number of spammer here in the forum, its obviously because people from third world country tries to get some coin. I think it would be better if Indonesia will ban bitcoin. There will be fewer spammers from now on. Im not saying that all Indonesian, but many are doing it.

Just like South Korea did and afterwards reverse herself. Indonesia will not be difference, they will be official communique clarifying the government position on Bitcoin.  

So it's not really important what happens, right?
It's virtual currency what was banned in Indonesia

Indonesia is not banned bitcoin, but Indonesia only prohibits using bitcoin as payment, because in Indonesia only legitimate payment according to the government is rupiah money, that's what I read from news, if Indonesia banned the use of bitcoin then Indonesia will lose because bitcoin can increase the state of a country , there are now many developed countries that legalize bitcoin

"Ban Bitcoin" what does it actually mean?
Bitcoin is not a user, not a site or kinda web service.
If to ban network ports and domains, people widely use VPNs.
Please share your guess, how to ban Crypto from technical point of view.

I agree with you. If they ban bitcoin in any country means, we can use of VPN.It is the best option for the ban issue. Some may worry about their investment and invested money. But the fact is they no need to worry at all.VPN is the simple solution they have with him.

Exactly, what does that mean. I mean people that have internet can still use a wallet, right?

People that have Internet and VPN can still:
1) mine;
2) trade;
3) invest: ICO, lending, stacking.
