Pursuant
to the Royal Decree on Measures for Preventing and Suppressing Technology
Related Crimes (No. 2) B.E. 2568 (2025), which came into force on 13 April
2025, the Ministry of Digital Economy and Society (MDES) is empowered to order
the blocking of access to unlicensed digital asset trading platforms. In this
regard, on 1 September 2026, the SEC submitted information on the Holdstation
and UNO applications to the MDES*. The MDES will proceed with blocking access
to such platform on 1 October 2026, which will result in the public being
unable to access it.
The
SEC advises investors who use the aforementioned platform to consider
withdrawing or transferring their assets from the platform before 1 October
2026 to protect their interests and prevent any potential impact that may arise
following the blocking of the platform.
In
addition, the SEC urges the public and investors to exercise caution when using
the services of unlicensed digital asset businesses. The list of such operators
is available on the Investor Alert section of the SEC’s website at https://market.sec.or.th/public/idisc/th/InvestorAlert.
Furthermore,
information on licensed business operators can be verified on the SEC’s website
at www.sec.or.th and through the SEC Check First application. If there are any
tips or indications of suspicious activities, please report them to the SEC
Complaint Center via Hotline 1207, the SEC official Facebook page, or the SEC
Live Chat on the SEC website for further in-depth investigation.
