Bitkub × Ledger: Thailand’s Crypto Army Just Got an Upgrade

Hardware wallets, white-hat hackers, and self-custody 101 — Ledger’s moving in, and Thailand is the first stop.

🔍 Fast Facts

• 🇹🇭 Bitkub partners with Ledger to raise Thailand’s crypto security game
• 🔐 Focus: hardware wallets, self-custody, and cyber hygiene
• 🧠 Bitkub Academy adds security training to its user onboarding
• 📈 Thailand’s crypto market expected to hit 793M in 2025
• ⚠️ Global crypto hacks = 14B+ in losses (2023) — this deal hits back

🛡️ Thailand’s Crypto Boom Needs a Lock

One in five Thai citizens owns crypto. That stat alone makes Thailand one of the hottest Web3 zones in Asia. But where there’s volume, there’s risk.

Bitkub — Thailand’s top digital asset exchange — just signed a security pact with Ledger, the global titan of hardware wallets. The mission? Teach Thai users to protect their keys, secure their bags, and ditch centralized custody traps.

“Thailand is growing fast. We’re making sure it grows safe,” says Ledger’s EVP Ariel Wengroff.

🎓 From Trading to Training

This isn’t just a hardware wallet giveaway. It’s a nationwide onboarding into serious crypto hygiene.

The Bitkub–Ledger playbook includes:

• 📚 Workshops & community events with live Ledger demos
• 🔐 Security training built into Bitkub Exchange’s onboarding
• 🧑‍💻 Teaching users to avoid scams, phishing, and rug pulls
• 🛡️ Backed by Ledger Donjon, the firm’s white-hat research team

“This isn’t optional,” says Bitkub Labs CEO Suchart Pavasiriporn. “Security is step one if you want to own your crypto.”

🚨 14 Billion Reasons to Care

2023 saw over 14B in stolen crypto — from CEX breaches to dApp exploits. And it’s not slowing down.

That’s why self-custody is the future. Ledger’s tech gives users total control over their assets, while Bitkub brings the localized firepower — from education to exchange infrastructure.

“We want Thai investors to have confidence,” said Bitkub Online CEO Atthakrit Chimplapibul. “With Ledger, we’re raising the standard.”

🌏 A Regional Example in the Making

Thailand is positioning itself as Southeast Asia’s digital asset hub, and this move fits the playbook:

• ✅ 5-year crypto tax exemption
• ✅ SEC-regulated crypto platforms
• ✅ Government support for Web3 growth

Now? Security gets its seat at the table. And the Bitkub–Ledger alliance is setting the tone for how countries can scale crypto responsibly.

TL;DR

• 🇹🇭 Thailand’s Bitkub teams up with Ledger to raise the country’s crypto security bar
• 🔐 Focus on self-custody education, hardware wallet usage, and user training
• 🧠 Bitkub Academy to host Ledger-powered events, workshops, and security onboarding
• 💸 Comes as crypto hacks hit 14B+ in losses in 2023
• 🌍 Thailand signals it’s serious about becoming Asia’s most secure crypto hub
