    • Thailand’s SEC lifts investment limitations for retail investors in real estate-backed and infra-backed ICOs.
    • Revised criteria for custodial wallet providers emphasize shareholder expertise in safeguarding assets.
    • Expansion into new business activities by digital asset operators requires SEC permission.
    • Thailand opts against allowing spot Bitcoin ETFs, aligning with a cautious approach.
    • Global trend indicates growing acceptance of Bitcoin ETFs despite certain countries’ reservations.

    Thailand’s SEC has ushered in a transformative change in its digital asset regulations effective January 16, 2024. The update dismantles previous investment restrictions for retail investors in real estate-backed and infra-backed ICOs, allowing them greater flexibility. Earlier capped at 300,000 baht per offering, this adjustment aims to enhance market liquidity and broaden investment options.

    While Thailand opens doors for certain digital assets, it maintains a cautious stance on spot Bitcoin ETFs. The decision aligns with global counterparts like South Korea, emphasizing stability and investor protection. Securities brokerages recommend exploring U.S.-based Bitcoin ETFs, but the SEC warns of compatibility considerations. The global acceptance of Bitcoin ETFs hints at potential shifts in Thailand’s regulatory landscape.
