It is now a lot easier for Indonesians to buy Bitcoin. Bitcoin.co.id, Indonesia’s rising Bitcoin website, has landed a groundbreaking deal with Indomaret to help Indonesia’s over 238 million residents to fund their Bitcoin.co.id accounts. Indonesians now have access to Bitcoin at more than 10,000 Indomaret convenience stores across Indonesia where they can “top up” Indonesian Rupiah on their Bitcoin.co.id account and then trade for Bitcoin:

Now, how will this affect Bitcoin Adoption and the Bitcoin Price?

This is great news Smiley it's helping those who are not quite as fortunate to have a lot of money to be able to invest and giving them the chance to do so. I don't feel this will have any real major effect on the price of bitcoin to be honest so I would not worry too much.

good to hear. the more places available to buy bitcion the better. right now tehre are too many places that will accept bitcoins, we need more places that will allow you to trade in fiat for bitcoin, then more people will use them. especially if fees are lower.

Over what time frame though?  It all helps like you say we dont necessarily need the super power countries on board to be a success.

Its more important to introduce bitcoins to developing countries rather than developed nations like USA

Good to hear that.

I am a bitcoin well wisher and want bitcoin adpotion worldwide but until this volatility issue settles down it's always a risky game to accept it as a payment option.You never know what is gonna happen the next hour.

you right, and in indonesia, not so many people are familiar with bitcoin and the payment with bitcoin possibilities are not so effective because the legality has not been approved as payment.
but I hope in the future indonesia people can know bitcoin and can be grown in Indonesia country Smiley

That's great. I always thought that embedding Bitcoin in those terminals that are already present everywhere is the way to go. They should also do this at 7-11 stores, where people can buy effectively every possible top-up card in use in the respective country!

I should have gotten into Bitcoin back in 1992...

Great news and I think it's a great idea giving Indonesians access to a global market and the technology Bitcoin brings.  This should be something that other developing nations should think about implementing as soon as possible.  this gives them choices and it gives them access to many things they didn't have before which is a global market to conduct business how they see fit.

Awesome! Good! This really is how adoption should go ahead. Re-use already existing digital Kiosk solutions where people usually buy phone top ups or other vouchers. By doing this we can reach hundreds, thousands of already existing terminals and retail places!
