幣安泰國部門支持他信的比特幣沙盒計劃，敦促泰國央行謹慎行事泰國海灣幣安已支持前總理他信在普吉島進行比特幣沙盒試點的提議，同時敦促泰國央行（BoT）謹慎行事並進行徹底評估。

A report by the Bangkok Post on Wednesday cited comments by Nirun Fuwattananukul, CEO of Gulf Binance, who described Thaksin’s proposal as a major step for the country’s digital economy.

《曼谷郵報》週三的一篇報導引用了海灣幣安公司首席執行官 Nirun Fuwattananukul 的評論，他稱他信的提議是該國數位經濟的重要一步。

He highlighted how the initiative aligns with global crypto adoption trends and Thailand’s economic strengths.

他強調了該計劃如何與全球加密貨幣採用趨勢和泰國的經濟實力保持一致。

“The initiative not only reflects the momentum of crypto adoption but also demonstrates that leaders at the highest level are embracing these transformative technologies,” Nirun told the broadsheet.

尼倫在大報上表示：“這一舉措不僅反映了加密貨幣採用的勢頭，還表明最高層領導者正在接受這些變革性技術。”

“As more countries adopt digital assets and cryptocurrencies, Thailand must not be left behind.”

“隨著越來越多的國家採用數位資產和加密貨幣，泰國絕不能落後。”

Leveraging Phuket’s Strategic Appeal

利用普吉島的戰略吸引力

Phuket, being a global tourism hub, could serve as an ideal testbed for integrating Bitcoin payments into Thailand’s economy, Nirun said.

Nirun 表示，普吉島作為全球旅遊中心，可以作為將比特幣支付融入泰國經濟的理想試驗平台。

By doing so, the country could attract tech-savvy tourists and investors, bolstering its competitiveness in the global market.

透過這樣做，該國可以吸引精通技術的遊客和投資者，增強其在全球市場的競爭力。

“Given our reliance on tourism and foreign inflows, a controlled integration of cryptocurrencies could align perfectly with our strategic goals,” he added.

「鑑於我們對旅遊業和外資流入的依賴，加密貨幣的受控整合可以與我們的策略目標完美契合，」他補充道。

Highlighting the challenges posed by cryptocurrencies, which include volatility and an evolving asset class, Nirun praised the proposed sandbox approach for mitigating these risks by allowing controlled experimentation.

Nirun 強調了加密貨幣帶來的挑戰，包括波動性和不斷變化的資產類別，他讚揚了擬議的沙盒方法，該方法透過允許受控實驗來減輕這些風險。

“A successful pilot project in Phuket could position Thailand as a regional leader in digital innovation,” he said.

「普吉島的成功試點計畫可以使泰國成為數位創新的地區領導者，」他說。

“It could enhance our global reputation as a progressive nation ready to embrace the future of finance while maintaining a responsible and regulated approach.”

“它可以提高我們作為一個進步國家的全球聲譽，準備擁抱金融的未來，同時保持負責任和監管的方式。”

Regulatory Hurdles Ahead

未來的監管障礙

Currently, the BoT prohibits the use of Bitcoin and other cryptocurrencies for payments. For the initiative to move forward, a collaborative framework involving the BoT and the local Securities and Exchange Commission is required.

目前，泰國央行禁止使用比特幣和其他加密貨幣進行付款。為了推進該計劃，需要建立一個涉及泰國央行和當地證券交易委員會的合作框架。

Key areas regulators must address include currency controls, financial safeguards, and policy coordination.

監管機構必須解決的關鍵領域包括貨幣管制、金融保障和政策協調。

Nirun emphasized that Thailand must learn from other countries like the US and Japan, tailoring solutions to fit its unique economic and regulatory context.

Nirun 強調，泰國必須向美國和日本等其他國家學習，量身定制解決方案以適應其獨特的經濟和監管環境。

He added that any rollout should be carefully managed to avoid potential disruptions to Thailand’s financial system.

他補充說，任何推出都應謹慎管理，以避免對泰國金融體系造成潛在的干擾。
