Indonesia is considering adding Bitcoin to its national reserves, with support from the Vice President's office and other key parties. The proposal suggests allocating about$18.3 billion to Bitcoin through the Daya Anagata Nusantara Investment Management Agency (BPI Danantara).

Proponents say this could help reduce national debt and diversify reserves.

Bitcoin advocates recently presented to the Vice President's office, proposing Bitcoin mining as part of the national reserve strategy. Discussions focused on Bitcoin's potential to strengthen Indonesia's economy long-term, aligning with milestones like the country's centenary of independence.

BPI Danantara, launched in February 2025, manages state assets independently to boost development. The Bitcoin allocation could secure up to 200,000 BTC, generating profits to ease debt pressures.

If approved, Indonesia would be among the first Southeast Asian countries to include Bitcoin in its sovereign wealth fund, marking a significant step in the region's crypto landscape.
