The regulator is also drafting rules for crypto futures trading and expanded tokenized investment products, collaborating with asset managers and digital exchanges to develop offerings for the Stock Exchange of Thailand; officials have additionally signalled support for a planned ‘green token’ linked to ESG investment goals [2][3][4].

Authorities say crypto ETFs will allow Thai investors to access digital assets without managing wallets or private keys, a feature intended to boost institutional participation and help position Thailand as a regional crypto hub [3][5].

The SEC aims to finalize the framework early in 2026 as part of a broader update to Thailand’s digital-asset rules [1].
