Jika agan mau membeli bitcoin ataupun altcoin di indonesia boleh-boleh saja gan, sampai sekarang tidak ada yang melarang untuk melakukan transaksi tersebut. Yang tidak bisa agan lakukan adalah melakukan pertukaran dengan menggunakan mata uang crypto, karena sampai sekarang indonesia belum melegalkan hal tersebut.

Exchanging crypto is still allowed here, you're just not allowed to make any payment with crypto. The biggest Indonesian exchange is indodax.com so that's my recommendation. However, you need to comply with their KYC procedure before making fiat (IDR) transaction.

Terima kasih!
Is it possible / safe to use coinbase.com, binance and kucoin too?
or should i stick to the local exchanges?

You can use all available exchange if you want to trade your Bitcoin, but if you want to cash out your bitcoin and you cant do KYC ( because Indodax require Indonesian ID ) you can use LUNO. Luno have low fee and easy to use.
BTW trading at coinbase.com is not available in Indonesia

I suppose theres no official regulation to date that stated bitcoin is wheter legal or illegal, I guess for now it is still okay to have bitcoin but you might not be able to use it for transaction at the moment. cmiiw Grin

Hey  Smiley
Iam currently studying on Bali. Iam thinking about buying some new bitcoins or altcoins.
But i cant find clear statements about the legal situation in this country.
So is it possible to buy bitcoin here ? Or is it illegal and it is dangerous to buy it here ?
Which exchanges are safe to use ?

Thank you for your answers! Terima kasih Smiley

Yes, it still possible, and you can use another exchange too. There's no restriction for it.
Most people in indonesia that use local exchange just for converting their crypto assets to IDR, or IDR to crypto. Because local exchange support local payment and easy to use.

okay thanks, that is good to hear. So maybe i can stick to my common exchanges from my home country Smiley

Bitcoins and mostly other altcoins according to SEC is not securities but currency. There is no a clear regulation about bitcoin in Indonesia but if U search on googles, a lot news that Indonesian Central Bank (BI) clearly states that Bitcoins and Other Altcoins would never be accepted as payment or legal currency in Indonesia. Possible to buy bitcoins in Indonesia, and it is very safe at this site https://indodax.com/ ; https://www.luno.com/en/ ; and https://coinone.co.id/ in the near future.

Central Banks Authority around the world very dislike Bitcoins and Co.  Wink
