Binance vs. OKX for IDR on/off-ramps

Binance (global) vs. OKX (global)

Two large offshore exchanges with IDR routes, but custody, licensure, and withdrawal friction differ in ways Indonesian traders should test first.

Scenario: Move 25–50M IDR in and out monthly via peer-to-peer rails, with occasional USDT conversions.

  • Both platforms operate without Bappebti registration; Indonesian residents fall under grey/illegal status.
  • P2P off-ramps depend on third-party liquidity; spread widens during volatility and may halt for KYC re-checks.
