Someone is trying to make money spreading fear. Without mentioning one country and an example.

Only if you earn more than 1,000 Baht per month from the Referral Program. To my understanding, exchanges are not required by law to submit customers' trading information to the TRD. Bitkub has an article regarding taxes. You can read about it here.

It seems the Thailand Elite Visa doesn’t fit squarely into either the Non-immigrant or Tourist visa categories; it may be considered a blend of both. You might consider reaching out to Binance TH Live Support for further clarification. Capital gains on cryptocurrency profits remain somewhat under the radar, as exchanges are not legally obligated to report users’ trading activity to Thailand’s Revenue Department.

Binance Thailand is now accepting registrations from foreign nationals residing in Thailand. Please note that a Non-Immigrant or Permanent Resident Visa is required. For more details, visit: https://www.binance.th/en/faq/identity-verification/a6760d03d73947e8b188dbc3c10cab91

Yes, I’ve read that article too. The delay is due to the eVisa system not yet being rolled out to all embassies. To get an idea of when the ETA system will be fully implemented, keep an eye on the eVisa system’s expansion. Once it’s widely available, the ETA will likely follow, as both systems will be integrated into a single, unified online portal.

With the soon introduction of the ETA (Electronic Travel Authorization), which serves as a form of pre-screening for visa-exempt travelers, you’ll know ahead of time if entering Thailand without a visa is viable. This removes any uncertainty at the border. For those familiar with entry procedures in Malaysia and Singapore, it works similarly: you simply scan your passport, and you’re in. If you’re using the visa-exempt option, it’s generally advisable to spend a few days outside the country before re-entering. Being questioned at the border can be a sign that it’s time to consider applying for a visa or having a solid reason for frequent entries without one. While most of the time they will let you in, repeated entries—especially via land border crossings—could eventually lead to denial. However, you can still try another border, and in many cases you'll likely be granted entry. Overall, traveling into Thailand has become easier due to the transition to a more civilian-led government, which has resulted in more relaxed policies. For instance, travelers can now stay up to 90 days, a recent shift reflecting this new approach. Good luck..

Out of stock, unfortunately.

Yes, that's one way to get it.

Bitkub has reopened its platform to foreigners, but given its past decision to restrict foreign access in 2021 due to regulatory pressure and system upgrades, I remain uncertain about its long-term reliability. In contrast, UpBit is a larger exchange with strong backing from prominent Thai investors like CP Group, which is one of Thailand’s largest conglomerates, and has partnered with global players like Dunamu, the parent company of UpBit Korea. UpBit has also demonstrated resilience and stability by becoming one of the top five cryptocurrency exchanges globally in terms of trading volume. As the saying goes, “follow the money.” With its strong financial backing and consistent operations, I believe UpBit continues to be a more reliable option for foreign users. Good luck!

If you want to avoid any hassle, just fly in and out of Thailand without any issues. Be sure to stay at least 2 nights abroad before returning to Thailand. You can usually do this about 3-4 times a year before they start asking questions. When they do, be sure to have 20,000 baht in cash, a return flight reservation, and a hotel or condo booking, and you'll be good to go. The reason they've tightened the requirements at land borders is due to the large number of travelers going in and out. This situation will likely become more pronounced when DTV holders start doing border runs to activate their next 180 days. The same applies to embassies—the busier they are, the stricter the requirements for visa applications. It's not that they don't want you here; it's just that they're overwhelmed. Thailand's immigration process is still lagging behind compared to countries like Malaysia and Singapore, where you can register online and simply scan your passport upon arrival without needing to interact with immigration staff. This will probably change in the future.

You don't have any evidence or data to support the claim that people doing border runs are criminals. First, criminals would have been stopped from entering Thailand long ago, thanks to biometrics, so they wouldn't be here in the first place. Second, people do border runs for various legitimate reasons. They might need more time to process an existing or new visa, or they simply want to extend their vacation in Thailand before returning home. No one is ruining it for anyone else. If you intend to stay long-term, you can obtain a visa and comply with its requirements. If your stay is short-term, you can use border runs to extend your stay, up to the limit of two per calendar year. Regarding your first point about monkeypox, entry rules can be enforced by any country—this is nothing new. However, I was referring to exiting, not entering. It sounds like you just unpacked your suitcase here...

They might rent out cars, but high-end scooters like the XMAX are quite expensive in tourist hotspots like Phuket and Samui. During the high season, it’s common to see them rented out for well over 10,000 baht per month; finding one for 10,000 would be considered a lucky deal.

Yeah. I never thought about that actually.

If you want to spot foreigners working illegally, just walk into a gym and check out the personal trainers... You're welcome.
