@CryptoSlate Thanks for the coverage. We are excited for what is to come this year!

Thailand’s @DV8Thailand becomes the first bitcoin treasury company in Southeast Asia with a digital asset license cryptoslate.com/press-releases…

Making history in Thailand! 🇹🇭🇹🇭🇹🇭

@JasonSoraVC We're excited for what is to come! 🙌

Thailand plans to allow mutual funds and institutions to offer crypto ETFs that go beyond Bitcoin and include multiple digital assets, a product response to rising demand from local investors for portfolio diversification. This signals that the country is moving beyond retail hype toward a more sophisticated digital asset market.

Thailand’s digital asset market is often viewed through the lens of retail participation. But structurally, the country has built something relatively rare: regulatory frameworks for both digital asset custodians and digital asset asset managers. These are key pieces of infrastructure if digital assets are to interact meaningfully with capital markets.

@RussJacobsen Harnessing this potential requires deep knowledge of the local market quirks and cultural dynamics that are often invisible to outsiders, insights that only emerge through sustained engagement on the ground.

Totally agree. This framework creates a very real institutional on‑ramp. What many U.S. Bitcoin investors underestimate is just how large and sophisticated Asia’s capital markets are and how different retail psychology can be. In much of Asia, retail participation is faster-moving, more liquidity-oriented, and deeply integrated into broader trading culture. Bitcoin is an opportunity for individuals and businesses in every jurisdiction. The jurisdictions that build the clearest bridges between retail energy and institutional structure will capture the next wave.

Southeast Asia has one of the highest levels of retail crypto participation globally. Thailand, in particular, has spent several years building the regulatory foundations that could support broader institutional engagement. This combination creates one of the most compelling institutional entry points in the region.

Thailand rarely appears in global headlines about digital assets. Yet it has quietly built one of the most structured digital asset regulatory environments in Asia, including stablecoin trading frameworks and tax incentives for investors. The question now is how listed companies will engage with this new financial layer.

@JasonSoraVC will be at BITCOIN 2026 by @TheBitcoinConf to discuss the opportunities in Asia’s crypto markets and its unique challenges that define the region. Our team will be on-site, meeting attendees and sharing perspectives on how these dynamics are shaping the broader crypto ecosystem. 2026.b.tc/speaker/jason-…

Proud moment for the team. Congrats to our founder, @JasonSoraVC, on being appointed Chairman of Taiwan-listed @FalconPowerTW (TWSE: 1516). Excited for what’s ahead. 🚀 story by @CryptoSlate cryptoslate.com/press-releases…

@Krakenfx securing a Federal Reserve master account is a watershed moment for the crypto industry. Direct access to the U.S. payments system means a digital asset bank can now settle on the same rails as traditional finance, without relying on intermediary banks. The gap between crypto infrastructure and core financial plumbing just got smaller. x.com/krakenfx/statu…

Interesting framing from @saturn_credit. Pairing higher yield with disciplined credit underwriting has the potential to reset the benchmark for on-chain yield.
