泰國在普吉島探索比特幣試點計畫以促進旅遊業，幣安執行長在監管挑戰中支持該計劃

泰國正在探索由前總理他信·西那瓦提出的比特幣試點計畫的想法。普吉島將作為一個旅遊沙箱來測試這個計畫。

Thailand is considering a Bitcoin pilot project in Phuket, with support from Binance Thailand CEO Nirun Fuwattananukul. However, the initiative faces regulatory challenges from the Bank of Thailand, which currently prohibits Bitcoin payments.

在幣安泰國執行長 Nirun Fuwattananukul 的支持下，泰國正在考慮在普吉島進行比特幣試點計畫。然而，該措施面臨泰國銀行的監管挑戰，該銀行目前禁止比特幣支付。

Thailand is exploring the possibility of launching a Bitcoin pilot project in Phuket, as suggested by former prime minister Thaksin Shinawatra. The initiative aims to test the integration of Bitcoin into the economy, particularly within the tourism sector, to attract tech-savvy visitors.

根據前總理他信·西那瓦的建議，泰國正在探索在普吉島啟動比特幣試點計畫的可能性。該計劃旨在測試比特幣與經濟的融合，特別是在旅遊業中，以吸引精通技術的遊客。

Binance Thailand CEO Expresses Support for Bitcoin Pilot in Phuket

幣安泰國執行長表示支持普吉島比特幣試點

The proposal has garnered support from Binance Thailand CEO Nirun Fuwattananukul, who believes it could enhance the country's competitiveness and tourism appeal. Nirun views the project as beneficial for Thailand's digital asset industry.

該提案得到了幣安泰國執行長 Nirun Fuwattananukul 的支持，他認為這可以增強該國的競爭力和旅遊吸引力。 Nirun 認為該專案對泰國的數位資產產業有利。

"I think it also reflects global crypto adoption and shows what leadership has embraced new technologies," Fuwattananukul stated.

Fuwattananukul 表示：“我認為這也反映了全球加密貨幣的採用，並顯示了領導層已經接受了新技術。”

Fuwattananukul also highlighted the growing adoption of cryptocurrencies by nations around the world. Given Thailand's heavy reliance on tourism, he suggests that integrating crypto into the Phuket economy could attract more tech-savvy visitors and investors, boosting Thailand's global presence.

Fuwattananukul 也強調了世界各國越來越多地採用加密貨幣。鑑於泰國嚴重依賴旅遊業，他建議將加密貨幣融入普吉島經濟可以吸引更多精通科技的遊客和投資者，以提升泰國的全球影響力。

However, Fuwattananukul also acknowledges the risks associated with cryptocurrencies, including price volatility, security vulnerabilities, and substantial regulatory burdens. He notes that some of these risks are still not fully understood.

然而，Fuwattananukul 也承認與加密貨幣相關的風險，包括價格波動、安全漏洞和巨大的監管負擔。他指出，其中一些風險尚未被充分了解。

In light of these concerns, Fuwattananukul expresses support for a controlled "sandbox" approach to the pilot project. Such systems, he says, would allow regulators to monitor and assess the risks firsthand, while businesses and consumers can engage in the operations.

鑑於這些擔憂，Fuwattananukul 表示支持對試點計畫採用受控「沙盒」方法。他說，這樣的系統將允許監管機構直接監控和評估風險，而企業和消費者可以參與營運。

"If successful, I think Phuket can help lead Thailand to be the leader in digital innovation, which will make the country stand out on the world map as a forward-looking nation," Fuwattananukul added. "But we also need caution and regulation to get the balance right between innovation and risk management."

Fuwattananukul 補充道：“如果成功，我認為普吉島可以幫助泰國成為數位創新的領導者，這將使該國作為一個前瞻性的國家在世界地圖上脫穎而出。” “但我們也需要謹慎和監管，以在創新和風險管理之間取得正確的平衡。”

Bank of Thailand Grapples with Bitcoin Payments Issue

泰國銀行努力解決比特幣支付問題

Bitcoin is already used for payments in some countries, such as the United States and Japan. Thailand could learn from their experiences and adopt solutions that best suit its unique context.

比特幣已經在美國和日本等一些國家用於支付。泰國可以學習他們的經驗並採取最適合其獨特情況的解決方案。

However, Thailand operates a closed currency system, which influences how the central bank manages the economy. This is why the Bank of Thailand must consider the implications of using Bitcoin for anything as basic as payments, since any form of currency flow can potentially impact the economy.

然而，泰國實行封閉的貨幣體系，影響了央行管理經濟的方式。這就是為什麼泰國央行必須考慮使用比特幣進行支付等基本業務的影響，因為任何形式的貨幣流動都可能對經濟產生影響。

If Bitcoin were to be adopted on a large scale, the central bank would face difficulties in regulating economic activities. As a result, collaboration among regulators is crucial.

如果比特幣大規模採用，央行在監管經濟活動時將面臨困難。因此，監管機構之間的合作至關重要。

At present, the central bank does not allow Bitcoin or other cryptocurrencies to be used as a form of payment in Thailand. Therefore, any Bitcoin pilot project would require agreement from the Bank of Thailand, as well as other relevant bodies such as the Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) to ensure consumer protection and anti-money laundering measures are in place.

目前，泰國央行不允許使用比特幣或其他加密貨幣作為付款方式。因此，任何比特幣試點計畫都需要獲得泰國銀行以及證券交易委員會（SEC）等其他相關機構的同意，以確保消費者保護和反洗錢措施到位。

On December 18, Thaksin also touched upon the need for Thailand to adapt to trends like Bitcoin and stablecoins. He urged the country to start preparing for challenges that may arise if Donald Trump returns to power, suggesting that Trump could retaliate against Thailand over trade imbalances.

12 月 18 日，他信也談到泰國需要適應比特幣和穩定幣等趨勢。他敦促該國開始為唐納德·川普重新掌權後可能出現的挑戰做好準備，並暗示川普可能因貿易失衡問題對泰國進行報復。

"Thaksin said he believed Donald Trump may retaliate against Thailand because of trade imbalances," the report noted.

報告指出：“他信表示，他相信唐納德·特朗普可能會因貿易失衡而對泰國進行報復。”
