PANews, December 26 - According to the Bangkok Post, Thailand is considering a Bitcoin pilot project proposed by former Prime Minister Thaksin Shinawatra, which will be tested in Phuket as a tourism-focused sandbox. The proposal has the support of the CEO of Binance Thailand, who believes it is a positive step for the country's competitiveness and ability to attract tourists. However, despite efforts by industry advocates and some political supporters to turn Thailand into a digital hub, the Thai central bank still prohibits cryptocurrency payments.
