Bitkub Exchange, Thailand’s leading digital asset platform, and Bitkub Academy, a prominent blockchain education center, have announced a strategic collaboration with Ledger, a global leader in digital asset security. This partnership aims to significantly enhance crypto security education and promote the adoption of hardware wallets among Thai users.
The initiative will roll out a comprehensive national security awareness program, focusing on elevating cybersecurity standards in the crypto space. It will provide widespread education on hardware wallets, self-custody practices, and cyber threat recognition. This vital content will be accessible through Bitkub Academy and integrated into Bitkub Exchange’s user onboarding process.
Suchart Pavasiriporn, CEO of Bitkub Labs Co., Ltd., emphasized the importance of this alliance: “Partnering with Ledger will grant us access to unparalleled knowledge and security expertise regarding hardware wallets. Ledger’s role as one of the industry’s largest security providers will be crucial in introducing solutions and guiding users on their journey with Bitkub Academy. By educating individuals on how to safeguard their digital wealth, we aim to foster sustainable participation and position Thailand as a center of excellence for secure digital asset management.”
Thailand’s digital asset market has seen remarkable growth, with an estimated one in five Thai citizens owning crypto assets. The market is projected to reach revenues of $805.1 million in 2026, up from $793.6 million in 2025. This collaboration comes at a pivotal time, especially with Thailand recently passing a five-year crypto tax exemption, signaling strong institutional support and highlighting the critical need for individual security education.
Atthakrit Chimplapibul, CEO of Bitkub Online Co., Ltd., added, “As Thailand’s leading digital assets exchange platform, regulated by the Thai SEC, Bitkub Exchange remains committed to empowering the community with essential education. This collaboration will enable users to self-custody their digital assets using top-tier hardware wallet products, proven to meet international standards by users worldwide.”
Beyond online education, the partnership will drive community safety initiatives and host local events featuring demonstrations of Ledger devices and practical security training tailored to common cyber threats faced by Thai holders. With Ledger’s impressive track record of securing over 20% of the world’s crypto assets through more than 7.5 million devices sold across 180 countries, this collaboration brings institutional-grade security expertise directly to Thailand’s retail crypto market.
Ariel Wengroff, EVP of Marketing and Communications at Ledger, remarked, “Thailand currently represents one of the most dynamic crypto markets globally. At Ledger, we’ve witnessed firsthand how security education can profoundly transform a user’s confidence and market maturity. As Thailand continues to solidify its position as a global crypto hub, it is paramount that this growth is built on an unwavering foundation of uncompromising security and extensive self-custody education.”
Bitkub Exchange, regulated by Thailand’s Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC), serves as a crucial entry point for users entering the crypto space, while Bitkub Academy has established itself as the country’s premier blockchain education center. Ledger brings its comprehensive security ecosystem, ranging from hardware wallets to the Ledger Live app, all backed by its in-house team of white-hat hackers, the Ledger Donjon.
