                5. Concluding Remarks


                        It is notable that the types of digital asset businesses under existing

                Thai laws and regulations are still limited and do not cover all possible types

                of digital asset businesses in the market. At present, under the Emergency

                Decree on Digital Asset Businesses, the types of digital asset businesses are
                still limited to three main types, namely exchange, brokerage and dealer

                businesses. In addition, the exemptions under the Notifications issued by the

                Thai SEC are still limited and may need to be retrofitted in response to

                emerging technologies.



                        With regard to Libra, it is noted that within the Thai legal and
                regulatory framework, Libra may not be granted the status as a legal tender

                or currency. Libra was designed to be a global low-volatility cryptocurrency

                supported by blockchain technology, hence it is a type of cryptocurrency that

                was defined in the Emergency Decree on Digital Asset Businesses.


                        It is also important to highlight that the authorized reseller may be

                subject to the definition of çdigital asset dealeré as specified in the Emergency

                Decree. However, at present, it is worth noting that the Thai Securities and

                Exchange Commission does not allow Libra to be traded as trading pairs.


                        In connection with the Notification KorTor 11/2561, it seems that the

                Thai SEC tends to exempt businesses offering services in relation to the

                purchase or sale of fiat-collateralised stablecoins from the requirements
                specified in the Emergency Decree. However, to date, the Thai SEC has

                only exempted businesses offering services in relation to the purchase or

                sale of Thai baht-collateralised stablecoins.
