Thai Crypto Retail Investor Accounts
~3M registered accounts
Thai retail crypto exchange accounts across all SEC-licensed platforms totalled an estimated 3 million by 2022–2023, the peak of the regional bull cycle, before consolidating as market conditions cooled. Bitkub alone has claimed over 2 million registered users, making it one of the largest fintech platforms in Thailand by user count. The SEC's KYC requirements mean each account corresponds to a verified individual, giving a more reliable count than unverified wallet estimates. Youth adoption (18–35 age band) is disproportionately high relative to traditional brokerage. Active monthly traders are a fraction of registered accounts, estimated at 10–20% during non-bull periods.
