South East Asia ETF Shock Inbound? Thailand Weighs Direct BTC and ETH ETF Listings

In Bitcoin ETF news today, Thailand’s SEC has opened a public consultation on draft rules that would allow asset managers to list spot BTC and ETH ETFs directly on the Stock Exchange of Thailand, giving everyday investors a regulated, exchange-traded route into crypto rather than requiring a private wallet or an offshore broker. The regulator confirmed the move in an August 24 notice, and comments on the proposal remain open until September 20, 2026, according to Thailand’s SEC.

Under the draft framework, each Thailand crypto ETF would be a passive, single-asset fund tracking either Bitcoin or Ethereum, with a requirement to maintain average net exposure of at least 80% of net asset value to its underlying coin across each accounting year.
