Thailand is considering a bitcoin pilot project proposed by former Prime Minister Thaksin Shinawatra that would be tested in Phuket as a tourism-focused sandbox. The proposal is backed by Binance Thailand's CEO, who sees it as a positive step for the country's competitiveness and ability to attract tourists.
