Thailand's central bank just hit the brakes hard—interest rates are now at their lowest point since 2022. But here's the thing: they're not rushing into more cuts. The bank is taking a measured, medium-term approach to monetary policy. Why the caution? They're worried about protecting the financial system from unexpected shocks. With room for further easing already limited, every move counts. It's a classic balancing act—supporting economic growth while keeping systemic risks at bay. These kinds of policy shifts ripple across global markets, including crypto.

The Bank of Thailand's recent move is a typical "both" approach — cutting interest rates to a 22-year low but still not daring to truly loosen monetary policy. This is a signal that the distribution of stakes has already formed, clearly fearing a systemic risk explosion.

The Bank of Thailand's recent actions are a bit cautious, but on the other hand, this conservative stance might actually be good news for the crypto industry.

Laughing and then crying, the Thai central bank's move is truly "seeking progress while maintaining stability," giving the retail investors a psychological massage.
