In a groundbreaking move poised to reshape Thailand’s digital landscape, Binance, the world’s largest cryptocurrency exchange, and Gulf Energy have received the green light from the Thai Securities and Exchange Commission to launch a cryptocurrency exchange. This joint venture, known as Gulf Binance Co., is backed by the financial prowess of Gulf Energy, a major player in Thailand’s business arena.
In an era where crypto regulations are evolving, Binance and Gulf Energy’s joint venture, Gulf Binance Co., stands as a testament to the industry’s resilience and adaptability. The Thai Securities and Exchange Commission’s recent approval on November 10, 2023, marks a significant milestone for the collaboration, paving the way for the launch of a cryptocurrency exchange in Thailand early next year.
According to a recent filing, the leading global cryptocurrency exchange has strategically teamed up with Gulf Energy, led by the country’s second-richest individual, Sarath Ratanavadi. Meanwhile, despite facing increased regulatory scrutiny in various jurisdictions, Binance’s push for global expansion remains undeterred.
Notably, Gulf Energy’s significant financial backing, helmed by Ratanavadi’s net worth of approximately $11 billion, positions the joint venture for success in Thailand’s burgeoning digital landscape.

Gulf Binance’s digital asset platform, tailored for both cryptocurrencies and digital tokens, has obtained approval from the SEC to commence operations. Notably, the platform’s commitment to security and compliance with regulatory standards signifies a responsible entry into the Thai market.
Initially operating as an invitation-only exchange, Gulf Binance aims to progressively open its doors to the general public in early 2024. This phased approach aligns with industry best practices, ensuring a seamless integration into Thailand’s crypto ecosystem.
Meanwhile, the collaboration between Binance and Gulf Energy not only ushers in a new era for Thailand’s cryptocurrency enthusiasts but also underscores the industry’s continuous evolution amid regulatory changes. As Gulf Binance prepares to make its mark, the joint venture holds the promise of transforming Thailand into a prominent player in the global blockchain landscape.
