Key provisions of Indonesia’s P2SK Law for crypto
The law expands OJK's role within Inovasi Teknologi Sektor Keuangan (ITSK) and aset keuangan digital, or digital financial assets, including crypto assets. Official OJK implementing materials state that, under Law No. 4 of 2023, OJK is authorized to regulate digital financial assets and crypto assets. That framing supports a regulatory shift away from a futures-commodity trading emphasis toward financial services supervision, while leaving detailed market rules to secondary regulation.
- Digital financial asset perimeter: Digital financial assets are treated as a financial-sector subject for OJK implementation, with crypto assets included in that category.
- Regulatory transfer: Article 312 of the law required the transfer of regulation and supervision over digital financial asset activities from Bappebti to financial-sector authorities within 24 months.
- Implementation window: Implementing regulations for the broader law were to be set within two years after promulgation.
- Operational rules: The crypto trading framework is carried primarily by OJK regulations and circulars rather than the P2SK Law text alone.
