Rupiah Weakens, Tokocrypto Highlights Crypto as a Hedge

The rupiah continues to slide, hitting Rp16,600/USD on March 25, 2025. The impact? Rising inflation, market uncertainty, and declining investment value. However, according to Tokocrypto CMO Wan Iqbal, crypto could be a solution for investors looking to protect their assets.

USDT: A Shield Against Depreciation

Stablecoins like USDT (Tether), pegged to the US dollar, offer a safe option for investors who want to maintain their purchasing power while avoiding extreme volatility.

Bitcoin: Long-Term Profit Potential

For those seeking higher returns, Bitcoin presents an attractive opportunity. With a limited supply and increasing adoption, BTC has demonstrated strong appreciation—jumping from $10,000 in 2020 to over $60,000 in 2021.

Is Now the Time to Accumulate?

Iqbal sees this as a prime moment to start accumulating crypto before prices surge. He also reminds investors to manage their Eid bonus (THR) wisely by allocating a portion for investments.

“Don’t just spend—use your THR to plan for long-term financial growth,” he concluded.
