Global demand for Bitcoin has continued to rise as international and Thai corporations begin adding the cryptocurrency to their balance sheets, strengthening its role as a long-term investment asset, say advocates.

Speaking at the 6th Bitkub Meetup 2025, hosted by Bitkub Capital Group Holdings, Jirayut Srupsrisopa, founder and group chief executive of Bitkub, highlighted Bitcoin’s status as a scarce digital asset.

“Bitcoin remains investable, especially when viewed through the lens of global crypto thought leaders,” he said.

The event, which brought together leading voices in crypto, finance and technology, featured in-depth discussions on Bitcoin’s evolving role in the global financial system.

Speakers agreed the current price of around 3.5 million baht on Bitkub Exchange reflects increased demand amid a tightening supply cap.

Institutional adoption is accelerating as governments and global institutions ramp up their Bitcoin holdings.
