To revive their tourism industry, Thailand is targeting an unusual niche of tourists: the crypto rich.
Working alongside regulators and local cryptocurrency exchange, the Tourism Authority of Thailand (TAT) will attempt to make spending cryptocurrencies easier to spend, Bloomberg reported.
TAT Governor Yuthasak Supasorn told Bloomberg they wanted to allow people who had "become wealthy from holding digital currencies" to be able to spend that wealth in Thailand.
"If they can use their currencies here without having to exchange it, or be faced with government taxes, then it would create convenience for them," he said.
Supasorn said they hoped a new framework would be in place for when global travel returned to normal.
