Thailand to offer crypto payments to Russian tourists as an emergency measure

Russia’s “special military operation” against Ukraine led many nations to declare economic war on the largest country by landmass to isolate it from the global financial world.

Contrary to those penalties, Thailand seeks to offer alternative cryptocurrency settlement options to Russian tourists. According to a local report, PTA’s President Bhummikitti Ruktaengam said digital assets could serve as a backup in case transactions are canceled.
