Legal and policy issues surround NFTs. This study examines NFT legal and policy issues and their effects on the digital economy. This study showed that NFTs could revolutionize digital asset ownership, but they also raise questions about intellectual property, privacy, and taxes. As NFT ownership evolves, buyers and sellers must understand their legal rights and obligations and avoid infringing on others' intellectual property rights. NFTs with photos or other personal data raise privacy concerns. To avoid privacy violations, buyers and sellers should consider NFT privacy implications. NFTs may be used for money laundering or terrorism. Regulators and law enforcement closely monitor NFT transactions to prevent misuse. Policymakers, regulators, and industry participants trying to establish a clear and effective legal framework that protects all parties should consider this study. These legal and policy issues must be addressed as NFTs gain popularity to maximize their potential. NFTs are legally and politically complex. This study emphasizes the need for ongoing research and stakeholder collaboration to responsibly and legally use NFTs and realize the digital economy's transformative potential.

Introduction. The quality of journals in Indonesia is much criticized; however, the number of Indonesian journals that meet the criteria of Directory of Open Access Journal (DOAJ) is quite a lot. This study describes some facts of Indonesia’s publications based on DOAJ and World Bank data.Data Collection Method. Some filtering processes in DOAJ database were done based on sum of journals, scientific fields distribution, and Article Processing Charge (APC). Open data regarding research funds among countries in World Bank database were analyzed.Data Analysis. This study used quantitative-descriptive design with frequency analysis technique. Data visualization was done with R Statistical Computing and Google Sheets.Results and Discussions. In March 2017, there were 500 Indonesian journals (5th rank worldwide); 420 of them were in Indonesian covering more than 51,000 articles (7th rank). The top three fields were: education, Islam religion, as well as business and commerce. As much as 70% of the journals were free of APC. Science must prioritize inclusiveness and equality inline with the principles of originality and honesty.Conclusions. This study concludes that open access journals in Indonesia improves the accessibility, quality, and relevance of Indonesian research, which can be reused by communities, industries, and the government.

A significant development of open science movement has been witnessed in the last five years. This could bring a fresh start to Indonesian academia. The objective of this paper is to showcase the advancement of open science concept and implementation that can be adopted to increase impact. We did a literature review on peer-reviewed papers, websites of funding agency, open science blogs, and threads on Twitter.We believe the values of research output are not limited to a paper in a high reputation journal. Data is now considered as separate output, as well as, data management protocols, and laboratory notebooks. Publishing research results as a preprint is also used to disseminate findings as rapid and as fast as possible. Post publication peer-review is also added to the reviewing system to add openness, transparency, and objectivity. It offers credit to the reviewers. We also see the growth of impact indicators as the results of San Francisco Declaration on Research Assessment (DORA) statutory. More initiatives and technologies have been introduced to make science more open, transparent, and inclusive.With so many developments have been made, therefore it’s not wise for Indonesian academia to rely themselves only to the old perception of research outputs and impact indicators.
