Binance will set up a new crypto exchange in Indonesia through a joint venture with a local consortium.

Binane will establish a joint venture with a consortium led by MDI – the multi-stage venture capital arm of Telkom Indonesia, the country’s largest telecommunications company – according to a statement.

The consortium has more than 170 million consumers in Indonesia and the newly formed joint venture will seek to leverage Binance’s asset infrastructure and technology to “support the development of the new exchange platform.”

“Our ambition at Binance is to grow the blockchain and cryptocurrency ecosystem globally, and this initiative in Indonesia is an important step in that direction,” said Changpeng Zhao, Founder and CEO of Binance. “With rapid adoption of technology and strong economic potential, Indonesia could become one of the main centers of the blockchain and crypto ecosystem in Southeast Asia. ”

Binance Global Expansion

Despite a recent setback in Singapore where it retreated after failing to secure a crypto license, Binance continues to grow around the world.

In addition to the latest move to Indonesia, Binance also recently announced a € 100 million initiative to support the development of the French and European blockchain ecosystem.

Even within Singapore, he remains active with the acquisition of an 18% stake in the private Hg Exchange stock exchange.
