Indonesia's central bank chief just dropped their 2026 target: aiming to stabilize the rupiah at 16,500 against the dollar. That's quite the specific number. Curious how this policy stance will play out given global macro headwinds and dollar strength trends. Regional fiat moves like this often ripple into local crypto liquidity and trading patterns.

16500? Why is this number so precise; it feels like it was just pulled out of thin air... The Central Bank of Indonesia is really something, daring to stabilize the rupiah despite the strong dollar. I wonder if this will be another battle for defense.

The number 16500 is interesting; it feels like the Central Bank of Indonesia is in a fierce battle with the US dollar. To be honest, it's quite impressive to maintain stability in such a strong dollar environment. However, that said, if the local coin stabilizes, what will happen to the on-chain Liquidity? That's the key point.

16500? This number is too particular, it feels a bit overly optimistic... With the dollar being so fierce, can it really hold steady?
