  1. Total investment in fintech companies hit an all-time high of $ 3.5 billion in the first nine months of 2021. That is more than three times as much as in 2020.
  2. Singapore in particular leads the number of top FinTech financiers in ASEAN on 2021, accounting for 44% of the total. In second place are Indonesia and Synthetic Team in third place with 11%.
  3. Local banks across Southeast Asia have been stepping into the crypto market by investing in licensed crypto exchanges, a phenomenon that has picked up steam, particularly in Thailand and Singapore.

Indonesia

Indonesia has evolved a relatively well-defined stance towards crypto assets and is considered reasonably open to blockchain technology. The barriers to entering the crypto market in Indonesia is low and as of today, all you need to get started is a smartphone, an internet connection, and probably less than $1 capital. Local crypto exchange are thriving — as they are connected directly to local banking and digital payments platforms making them easy to adopt, the prospect of quick gains is alluring: Religious figures and influencers have taken to the internet to spread the news the ease of trading.

Internally on the moment of the rise of cryptocurrency in Indonesia, the global cryptocurrency such as Luno and Binance start to really put their focus and strategy aiming Indonesia, creating join venture with Indonesia conglomerate for crypto operations. At the same time, the country’s regulators are racing to keep up.

SEADEX Point of View

The Indonesian crypto market is booming like never before, with every passing day, more and more investors/crypto enthusiasts are trying to hop in on this financial revolution, which make so many door of opportunity open, yet at the same time crypto proponents know that blockchain literacy needs to match the mounting opportunities. And here is where the countries lack, educational literacy and freedom of options.

As much as the central exchange keeps piling up, there are not less crypto projects created out of lack of knowledge in order to use this transition period of crypto adoption to scam and blindly gain wealth. The market is big, the opportunity is huge, yet not much know what the essence of blockchain really is and to what maximum potential it could reach — and when its time for them to know, decentralized exchange, decentralized ecosystem will always be the first option.

During the old order, Indonesia implemented centralized governance system. It was right, at that time. Until after a long period of time, what was “right” ended up being an abuse of power where the majority of the people aware and do a massive evaluation as the system is no longer serve the country’s vision.

The introductory I just explained is to give you a better view of how things are meant to change when the majority is aware and can evaluate a better solution to the current problem. SEADEX will be the first solution when all of the knowledge and information are limited and controlled by narration of some group of people for personal purpose.
