Bangkok, 26 June 2025 – Pursuant to the Royal Decree on Measures for the Prevention and Suppression of Technological Crime (No. 2) B.E. 2568 (2025), effective since 13 April 2025, the Ministry of Digital Economy and Society (MDES) is authorized to restrict access to unauthorized digital asset trading platforms.

The MDES will proceed to restrict access to these platforms on 28 June 2025, in order to protect investors and prevent unlicensed digital asset trading platforms from being exploited as channels for money laundering by wrongdoers, in line with the legislative intent.

The SEC urges investors who use these platforms to consider withdrawing or transferring their assets from the platforms before 28 June 2025 to protect their interests and prevent any potential impact that may arise after the platforms are blocked.
