Thai authorities have decided to prohibit unauthorized cryptocurrency platforms in order to improve law enforcement’s efficiency in combating internet crime, as per an <a href="https://www.sec.or.th/TH/Pages/News_Detail.aspx?SECID=10732&amp;fbclid=IwZXh0bgNhZW0BMQABHfcwra1QtmXgckCBiPpfgG5OKOrRxpWY8tSF13jeQDi2qDks1El5_GsYKQ_aem_ASNhM3cWgGaZHUMVDkCdGUnbDIL2U3wt3oc9MbFlXn_BLI5zhNoT1-6f0q6k7mGKLVc" target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer nofollow">announcement </a>made on April 19.
Following a meeting of the Technology Crime Prevention and Suppression Committee, Thailand’s Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) was directed to give the Ministry of Digital Economy and Society information about unlicensed digital asset service providers in order to prevent access to the platforms.
According to the release, the SEC has examined the impact on users and will allow them time to manage their accounts before they are unable to utilize the site.
“Therefore, the SEC requests users of the said platform to quickly withdraw their assets from the platform,” the announcement stated. The Thai SEC also noted previous actions by governments such as <a href="https://crypto.news/india-blocks-access-to-major-offshore-crypto-exchanges/" rel="noopener noreferrer nofollow">India </a>and the Philippines in blocking unauthorized platforms.
