Calvin Kizana

I spent time on the ground in Jakarta over the last few days and came away more convinced that it will play a growing and significant role in the internet financial system  In many ways it already is; Indonesia has extremely high crypto and stablecoin adoption.  Hard to think otherwise after meeting so many leading entrepreneurs and innovators.  @williamsutanto of @indodax has built Indonesia's largest crypto assets platform.  @CalvinKizana and @sndyc of Tokocrypto operate one of Indonesia’s leading platforms, focused on delivering simple, secure, and seamless crypto trading and transactions. The @mobee_id team is focused on providing seamless access to digital asset trading and liquidity through an easy-to-use platform for both individuals and businesses.  It was so great to spend time again with Vince Iswara, founder and CEO of @danawallet, which continues to improve the financial wellbeing of so many through innovation, and is the largest digital wallet platform in Indonesia.   @pangxuekai and his team @ICExGroup have built an OJK-licensed bourse for digital assets, operating Indonesia’s integrated exchange alongside clearing and custody infrastructure.  @archie_anugrah, @andyputra, @ririnadani and the whole team @PintuID have built a mobile-first digital asset platform that serves millions and has been innovating in the space from the early days. Natasha Ardiani and the team at Durianpay are laser focused on making payments seamless across the entire ecosystem. The Lippo Group and Nobu Bank are thinking deeply about the digital future at one of Asia’s largest diversified conglomerates and digital bank, clearly poised to continue the firm’s legacy as an industry pioneer in Indonesia and beyond. jeth_soetoyo of CFX and I first met in 2018 before Circle had even launched USDC! It’s impressive what he did with Pintu and is now doing with @cfx_id, a licensed bourse that is on a mission to accelerate the adoption of digital assets. I got to meet with him and leaders from ICC, KKI and IKS.  @D3Labsdotio is a secure and compliant asset tokenization infrastructure for asset issuance, management, and transactions. taking an innovative approach to tokenization and real world assets. It was great to meet Chung Ying Lai and Tigran Adiwirya. They have a deep commitment to the local crypto community!  Very strong energy across the board, excited about what we can do together and the potential for growth in this highly dynamic market.
