JAKARTA - The Bittime crypto asset trading platform assesses POJK Number 6 of 2026 concerning the Behavior of Financial Services Sector Information Providers can increase transparency and investor protection in the midst of the large role of influencers and key opinion leaders (KOL) in the crypto asset industry.
Bittime Operations Director Ryan Lymn said the presence of the regulation shows that the Indonesian digital asset industry is maturing.
"This regulation shows that the Indonesian digital asset industry is maturing. Transparency in the promotion and delivery of information will be an important factor in building investor confidence in the long term," Ryan said in a statement in Jakarta, quoted by Antara, Saturday, June 27.
For information, the Financial Services Authority (POJK) Regulation regulates the standards of behavior for parties who convey information on the financial services sector to the public, including influencers, content creators, educators, and KOLs.
In the rules, information providers are required to convey information clearly and not misleading, disclose economic interests in promotional content, and not promise certain profits on the financial products being promoted.
The regulation was issued shortly after the Illegal Financial Activities Eradication Task Force (Satgas PASTI) stopped the activities of a number of KOLs who were suspected of offering unlicensed Digital Financial Asset Traders (PAKD) to the public.
According to Ryan, this step can improve the quality of information received by investors, as well as encourage more responsible practices for promoting crypto assets.
"We see that the profession of KOLs and crypto content creators will evolve to become more professional. In the end, higher standards in information delivery will benefit investors and the industry as a whole," said Ryan.
Educator and digital asset content creator Christian Victorious assessed that the regulation can help investors understand investment risks better.
"Regulations that encourage transparency will help investors better understand investment risks. This is important to support the growth of a healthy digital asset industry," said Christian.
Ryan added that improving the quality of information needs to be accompanied by strengthening the community and digital asset literacy. For this reason, Bittime continues to strengthen collaboration with communities and content creators through the Bittime Social Hub Program.
Bittime Social Hub Program is a program that allows communities, educators, and content creators to develop networks while obtaining various benefits based on their contributions in increasing the adoption and literacy of crypto assets.
"Through the Bittime Social Hub Program, we want to build a collaborative ecosystem that encourages more responsible education while providing a space for the community to grow together," said Ryan.
Bittime believes that regulations that encourage transparency, accountability, and consumer protection will be an important foundation for the sustainable growth of the crypto asset industry in Indonesia.
