The post Crypto Law in Thailand: SEC Opens Public Consultation Ahead of July 21 Deadline appeared first on Coinpedia Fintech News
Thailand is taking another bold step in crypto regulation. On Friday, the Thailand Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) launched a public consultation to gather opinions on whether local crypto exchanges should be allowed to list self-issued utility tokens.
Public feedback will be open until July 21, 2025.
This move could reshape Thailand’s crypto landscape, especially for platforms looking to expand their digital asset offerings.
SEC’s Focus: Innovation and Investor Protection
The SEC is revising the criteria for listing digital assets on local exchanges. According to the official statement:
“The SEC Board, at its June 2025 meeting, resolved to revise the criteria for selecting digital assets to be provided on the exchange to be in line with the context of the digital asset industry.”
Key points of the proposal include:
Allowing crypto exchanges to list their own utility tokens
Strengthening investor protection with stricter disclosure requirements
Exchanges will be required to disclose individuals involved in each crypto project and activate alerts in SEC monitoring systems to help prevent insider trading.
Existing tokens must also disclose the names of all related parties within 90 days of the regulation taking effect.
