    Members (myself included & I do know a lawyer who specialises in this) are unlikely to provide help when you only give scant details. You said you bought on a crypto exchange, you also say regular P2P stuff.  Which is it?  P2P? or P2B (crypto exchange).

     

    Buying on a Thai crypto exchange is perfectly legal, buying from another person can be considered money laundering. Buying on a foreign exchange with funds from Thailand breaks the currency control laws. Selling crypto on a Thai exchange bought overseas breaks the currency control laws (although this happens all the time and the TRD will want their cut).

     

     

    P2P can be done via CEX's as well. Payment is done via your Thai bank account or True Money or similar to another Thai bank account or similar. Binance and OKX both allow/facilitate this. I'm assuming that's what is being referred to here. Essentially you set a price and your location and what you're selling on the exchange and other users can contact you via the exchange to buy. 

  2. I've been using Bitkub as a local exchange for several years, onboarding and off to my local bank accounts.

     

    Likewise, international exchanges, Binance, OKX, Gate, Kucoin and Mexc. I've KYC'd using my Thai address several years ago and no issues.

     

    Apparently, people have had issues with Bitkub's KYC process. I have not, perhaps because I jumped onboard early and things have since changed.

     

    For what its worth, the only funds or tokens I keep on any exchange are what I'm trading and not longer term holds.

    You mean to say, that all these Thai people, in their thousands, who we see buying food, fruits, etc at the small roadside vendors are also paying 15baht for each transaction?

     

    I've never used QR payment in TH, so I don't know.

    Perhaps an out of province fee, similar to what is charged when you use an ATM out of the province your bank branch is based in.

    Thank you for the info. How long does it take to come to Thailand and what courier they are using?

    It took about ten days but it was right around Christmas so it might be quicker these days. It was shipped directly from Amazon and not by the reseller via ECMS and delivered to me via DHL.

    "The redefinition of gender is a social construct" -   wrong, a change of legal entity.

    As a scientist you should be ware that you cannot make up your own unsubstantiated definitions.

    Neither have I stated any opinion for you to respect, only facts.

    What you rally mean is your bigotry will prevail.

    Do you claim that legality is not a social construct? The very language you use is a social construct!

    The only bigot here seems to be you, which, of course, is symptomatic of the fascist liberals. And that is something I have no respect for.

    Carry on talking to yourself, if you so wish.

    X and Y are sex chromosomes,  females are defined by X and X, males are defined by X and Y.

    Man and Woman are terms for gender and not defined by chromosomes. Gender is normally defined by genitalia at birth but it can be reassigned.

    Of course you are perfectly free to disagree with the medical profession.

     

    Sweden became the first country in the world to allow transgender people to change their legal gender after "reassignment surgery" and provide free hormone treatment, in 1972.[1] Singapore followed soon after in 1973, being the first in Asia.[2]

    I am perfectly aware of chromosome pairs. The redefinition of gender is a social construct so, yes, as a scientist, I will disagree with the medical profession. 

    You have your beliefs and definitions and I have mine. The twain shall never meet.

    As I said, I respect and will continue to respect yours and other's divergent opinions. I have no issues with that.

    A bit of misconception there.

    The prefix "trans" means to cross, and transgender women are those that have crossed the gender divide with gender reassignment surgery. Man & Woman are terms for gender, as opposed to male and female which relate to the sex of the individual and cannot be changed.

    Those that dress up or take hormones are something else, ladyboys, chicks with dxks, transvestites, cross dressers,  call them what you want.

     

    While I respect your point of view, I don't pander to social constructs, only biological; either the person is XX or XY, other than a vanishingly small population of people to whom that does not strictly apply.

    Gmaps isn't even close  to current.  Charge Loma & PlugShare are a wee bit better, but you really do need to have the vendor's apps for finding anything off the beaten track.

     

    Here's a ballpark idea, from Charge Loma app, and extremely incomplete, as I filter out the slow chargers, and show only the 4 vendors we actually use ...

    Fantastic! Thank you for this. Much appreciated.
