Thailand cryptocurrency platform freezes over 10,000 accounts suspected of money laundering

Gate News reports that on March 10, according to The Bangkok Post, Thai cryptocurrency platform operators have frozen over 10,000 accounts suspected of being used for money laundering. The country is stepping up efforts to crack down on so-called “money laundering mule” accounts. This move builds on previous efforts by the Securities and Exchange Commission of Thailand and the Digital Asset Regulatory Office (TDO) to combat money laundering and investment scams involving digital assets. In February 2025, the SEC of Thailand stated that it has collaborated with the Digital Asset Regulatory Office, the Bank of Thailand, the Cyber Crime Investigation Bureau, the Central Investigation Bureau, the Anti-Money Laundering Office, and the Thai Bankers Association to establish additional safeguards against money laundering accounts.
