Thailand delays digital money handout, critics call for probe By Cointelegraph

Thailand’s planned digital wallet scheme, which intends to payout 10,000 baht (~$274) to citizens over 16 years old, has been delayed, while critics call for a probe from the country’s electoral commission.

As originally reported by the Bangkok Post, Thailand’s deputy finance minister, Julapun Amornvivat, announced that the planned February 2024 launch of a new digital wallet has been delayed to buy more time for the development of the system.
