 Today's myth about Thailand 🇹🇭 (#3) is that there's no #Bitcoin  community here. After 5 years in Thailand, I'm discovering that Bitcoin runs deep here. 

There are Bitcoiners everywhere, they're just low key about it! 

The Bitcoin scene among Thais is large and growing fast. The Bitcoin Standard is now the #2 book at Naiin, a major bookstore in Thailand. 

There's a 4,000 person Discord server in Thai language dedicated to all things #Bitcoin , and the educational company @Right Shift  has 30k YouTube followers and runs a global Bitcoin conference in Bangkok: v2 coming in September 2024. 

Also, check out the #siamstr community 😉

Bitcoin physical spaces and meetups like @Deactivated account  by PlebPiccoloJr (you on Nostr?) and @NPC CPU Skater , Bitcoin Learning Center by @Kostro  in Chiang Mai and @Bitcoin-Powerhouse in Phuket are also growing across the country. 

Don't sleep on Thailand 🇹🇭

 I'd love to learn more - I have a Bitcoiner friend in Thailand right now. I'd also love to support the Bitcoin community in Thailand :) 
 Following all those accounts is a great way to start! 
 I only use Nostr these days. Gave Twitter a wide birth ages ago. If you are in Thailand or would like to know more, DM me on here. Thanks. @loki  
 Thank you so much for your shouting out for Thailand and our strong and ever-growing #Bitcoin community. Hope to see you at Thailand Bitcoin Conference this September! 
 I look forward to meeting you there!!
