The legal situation in Indonesia

Indonesia is not on Hyperliquid's restricted list. Crypto trading is legal only through OJK-licensed entities, and authorities have blocked websites and social-media accounts of unlicensed foreign exchanges since 2022. OJK Regulation 23/2025 (December 2025) created a framework for licensed crypto derivatives, and licensed futures products launched in 2026. We found no block or warning naming Hyperliquid.

Key facts

  • July 2022: authorities blocked several foreign exchange websites lacking Electronic System Operator (PSE) registration; Komdigi later blocked social-media accounts of unlicensed foreign exchanges.
  • POJK 23/2025 (Dec 2025): crypto derivatives allowed through OJK-supervised traders and bourses, with customer knowledge tests, segregated margin and whitelisted assets.
  • Licensed crypto futures are now offered domestically, e.g. Bittime Futures (launched July 2026); domestic crypto-derivatives volume was Rp3.41 trillion in July 2026.
  • OJK warns that funds held on unlicensed exchanges are not protected; OJK Regulation 6/2026 limits influencers to recommending licensed service providers.
  • No action specifically naming Hyperliquid was found.

What are your options in Indonesia?

If Hyperliquid or local law restricts this country, the honest answer is: don't try to get around it. Using a VPN breaks Hyperliquid's Terms of Use and may break local law. Look for derivatives platforms licensed by Otoritas Jasa Keuangan / Financial Services Authority (OJK); Ministry of Communication and Digital Affairs (Komdigi) for site blocking, and check back here: rules change.
