Thailand has emerged as one of the most interesting development hub for cryptocurrencies and blockchain in Southeast Asia in 2018. While the world is yet to decide the category for cryptocurrencies and digital asset, the Thai government has welcomed the cryptocurrency projects and exchanges. The University of the Thai Chamber of Commerce (UTCC) recently forecast that the total value of the country’s digital economy will reach 3.15 trillion baht in 2018, up 24.6% year-on-year. This shows that the nation is strategically positioned to become Southeast Asia’s next blockchain hub after Singapore.
