Illegal Crypto Mining Remains A Problem For Thai Authorities

Crypto mining is a complex technical process that requires high-end computers
and related equipment. Because it requires massive power and investment in
advanced equipment, it isn’t surprising that many groups run illegal
crypto-mining operations.

In Thailand• Таиланд, several crypto-mining operations have been set up, and many of
these have been illegally tampering with the country’s electrical supply. BTC

Last November 2024, Thai authorities raided and closed at least nine illegal
crypto-mining operations and charged two persons with stealing over $280k
worth of electricity.

In 2022, Bangkok• Таиланд » Населенные пункты Таиланда » Города Таиланда » Бангкок’s Department of Special Investigation also carried out raids
targeting over 50 illegal crypto-mining operations.

Chonburi Mining Operator Illegally Tapped Into Local Electricity Supply

According to local reports, an unidentified employee of the mining firm tipped
the authorities about the possible electricity theft in the facility.
Authorities said the facility used the electricity meter correctly daily to
avoid suspicions and switch to illegal tapping by night.

Police Maj. Gen. Montree Theskhan of the Crime Suppression Division said the
company was registered for digital asset trading. However, it also operated
crypto mining rigs that illegally used the state’s power supply at night.

the world. For example, in its October 2024 report, the Malaysian primary
power provider reported over $100 million in losses due to theft.

tighten regulations and launch campaigns against violators. Some governments
have banned mining and technology outright to control its negative effects.
