A major change is taking place in Thailand’s crypto investing scene as a result of the SEC’s approval of private funds for the U.S. Spot Bitcoin ETFs. But there’s a catch: these investments can only be made by institutional investors and very wealthy people.
This judgment is significant because it represents a new step in the regulation of cryptocurrency investments in Thailand, which will have far-reaching effects on the market and on individual investors.
Result of the Rising Demand
To facilitate the introduction of private funds investing in U.S. Spot Bitcoin ETFs, the SEC of Thailand has just proposed changes. Notably, on January 11, the U.S. SEC approved Bitcoin ETF trading. This judgment follows suit. Additionally, worldwide investors’ faith in the investment vehicle has been bolstered by the recent strong inflow into the U.S. Spot Bitcoin ETF market.
Meanwhile, this is all in an effort to meet the rising demand from institutional investors for exposure to digital assets, as stated by SEC secretary-general Pornanong Budsaratragoon. According to the Bangkok Post, she did stress the importance of being cautious since these investments are quite risky.
Particularly in light of the unprecedented surge in interest in cryptocurrencies—and Bitcoin in particular—and their skyrocketing values, the SEC’s approval is a calculated move. The SEC’s determination to reduce digital asset risks is shown by this decision, which opens up new channels for institutional investment.
Additionally, in line with the planned regulatory improvements of the Stock Exchange of Thailand, Ms. Pornanong emphasized the SEC’s continuous endeavors to strengthen investor trust and improve market oversight.
