as long they still not force to close the local exchanger, i think nothing to worry about it. even we can't adopt it as payment but at least trading activity still allowed in Indonesia, it is already good
There is a chance that they will force Bitcoin exchange to close. This time is different, they clearly mentioned that no financial firms should process Bitcoin-related payments, including banks. Now if banks aren't allowed to process Bitcoin related transaction, how will the exchange received and send IDR to user?
Again and again, a news about indonesian banned bitcoin. You know what ? I'm also indonesian and this news is not that big here in indonesia, even mainstream media here don't show a news about bitcoin, you are the one who stupid here. It's just a normal news and bitcoin still can be used here.
Don't be ignorant. Read the news, it's all over the places

It does matter a lot. How could we buy and sell if the banks and all payment system service providers aren't allowed to process Bitcoin-related IDR transaction? We will be forced to sell and buy Bitcoin over-the-counter (off exchange). That's a huge drawback considering our biggest market currently has a daily trading volume as high as $15 million
