Indodax, the first crypto exchange in Indonesia is even 9 years old. At the age of 9, Indodax wants to participate to strengthen the blockchain ecosystem in Indonesia.

Blockchain technology has urgency because this technology is believed to be a solution to technology that has been around for a long time. In addition, blockchain technology is a technology that is transparent, recorded, and of course safer.

Indodax CEO Oscar Darmawan said blockchain is part of an industrial revolution that makes the process more integrated. From the user's point of view, it may not be too visible that the difference may only be more pronounced that the data will be more integrated, more organized, and faster.

Blockchain is an infrastructure that will change the world. Developers in Indonesia who are now using blockchain technology are growing. Communities regarding blockchain, not only crypto but also web 3, metaverses and others are growing," Oscar said in his statement, Wednesday, February 15.

As crypto and blockchain stakeholders, we need to support the ecosystem to be more solid. The use of blockchain is not only limited to games, in crypto or related to finance but can certainly be useful for other industries such as in the health industry, government, IoT and so on," Oscar added.

Indodax CTO William Sutanto said blockchain is part of an industrial revolution that makes the process more integrated. This technology is also a future technology.

"In the future I see that blockchain will be used daily by the general public but actually they don't really know that the technology used contains blockchain technology because in the future the development of blockchain will be more natural," explained William.

For blockchain actors, providing literacy about blockchain technology is a must so that people can be more literate. Why is technology good for use in Indonesia in an era like this. Blockchain technology does not replace existing technology. However, this is the latest technology that complements the old technology," said William.

The blockchain world has become increasingly popular in Indonesia lately. Since the high public's curiosity about the crypto world, the higher the search for blockchain technology has been. Not only among the IT community, but this technology is starting to get familiar with the general public.

The phenomenon that started with the development of internet technology is increasingly in the spotlight of the general public. Asked for hope regarding the blockchain landscape in the future, Oscar hopes that in the future the general public will understand that blockchain is a trusted infrastructure.

"Hopefully in the future for a blockchain landscape, I want a lot of people to know about blockchain technology and build something from blockchain. Whether it's massive, learning or still a prototype or you can create a business on the blockchain if you have a big target. Because if you look abroad there are already too many and unfortunately in Indonesia there are not too many. If the blockchain project increases, of course the ecosystem will be stronger. What so far knows blockchain is only limited to buying and selling crypto, so it is more confident that blockchain is not only limited but a technology that we can take advantage of and change the world, "said William Sutanto.

As additional information, Indodax has an offline counter that can be used by members to consult at the business centers of Sudirman, DKI Jakarta and Seminyak, Bali. In Indodax, Bitcoin and other crypto assets can be owned by anyone easily and safely starting at a price of only Rp. 10,000.
