I have enjoyed at least 25 Songkran over the past 40 years, in Pattaya, Phuket or down at Khao San Road, but no more. Too many idiots are screwing up the holidays nowadays. It was never like this before (or I'm getting too old).
This is the reason why I have kept a bit over 800,000 Baht in the same Thai bank account since 2017 when I got my O retirement visa. Only use the account for my visa extension every year and have never had any problem. Use an account at another bank for expenses.
Bitcoin is bigger but not much better than Fart coin.
Fart coin allows you to earn tokens by submitting fart jokes or memes. Each transaction includes a "Gas Fee" that produces a digital fart sound. Fart coin has a market capitalization briefly surpassing $1 billion. This rise reflects the influence of internet culture on cryptocurrency markets. 🥱
