The cryptocurrency exchange considers Indonesia to be a “major opportunity to contribute to the growth of the greater blockchain community and help drive crypto adoption globally.” Huobi Indonesia CEO Xiong Dan added that the new fiat gateway is an “exciting milestone” for the Huobi team in Indonesia. “We will continue to expand the Indonesian market, consolidate and improve service quality,” he said.
Huobi Group continues to expand into Turkey
Huobi started its expansion to Turkey with a localized web and app versions of the platform. As Cointelegraph reported in October, Huobi is planning a fiat onramp for the Turkish Lira by the end of the year.
More recently, the crypto exchange completed its executive pursuit in Turkey by appointing Alphan Gogus, a veteran in crypto and finance, as the new general manager for Huobi Turkey.
Huobi Group regional president Mohit Davar said at the time that hiring a leader is an essential milestone for establishing a strong local presence in Turkey. “Huobi will continue to build their team in Turkey,” he added.
