Apart from supervising transactions, NFTs in Indonesia are necessary to establish regulations that will assist the development of dynamic NFTs. Currently, regulations in Indonesia are still limited to crypto-assets, not covering other blockchain developments.

The way the system works does not restrict users from sharing or copying digital data in various forms to buyers. Blockchain technology also enables digital peer-to-peer transactions that record and store buying and selling data. This logging allows link transaction information to be stored chronologically and permanently. Therefore, transaction activities at NFT are definitely safe, not harming anyone.
What is the future of the NFT in Indonesia? NFT users who make transactions to buy and sell digital assets continue to grow every day, which will increase the economy in Indonesia. The interest of many people, especially the younger generation, is to use NFT technology as a medium for selling works.
