Cafe Turns Into Crypto Haven
The HIP Coffee & Restaurant in Thailand has been providing information related to digital assets which has hence turned into a haven for cryptocurrency traders, with screens displaying the latest market movements and investment advice.
Customers at the cafe can be seen staring at their laptops, nervously sipping coffee, or taking a bite of their favourite cake.
Through this setup, cryptocurrency traders in Thailand get to exchange information, which they believe gives them a good chance of success in the otherwise volatile crypto market.
As per what a Reuters report quoted about a cryptocurrency trader, Detnarong Satianphut said that this initiative was ¡°interesting for me since I get to meet others who share my interests¡±.
Another trader Apakon Putnok reportedly said that the presence of so many screens was beneficial, as it helped them analyze a trade, consider the factors behind a crash and make decisions accordingly.
Here's a video of the cafe showing its multiple screens, as tweeted by Reuters.

Number Of Customers Have Doubled
This cafe opened in the year 2013. And ever since the cryptocurrency data panels were installed in the cafe in 2020, the number of customers has reportedly doubled!
Even customers who used to come only on weekdays are now frequently visiting the cafe every day. The concept of showing crypto-related information has attracted a following of dedicated customers who visit on a regular basis.
Planning To Launch Own Crypto
The cafe's manager, Oakkharawat Yongsakuljinda, had stated that apart from providing free investment advice, they also plan to launch their own cryptocurrency coin soon!
A few weeks ago, Thailand's financial authorities too, had announced plans to regulate the usage of digital assets as a payment mechanism.
Following that, Thailand had announced that it had agreed to scrap a 15% cryptocurrency tax a few days ago, after fierce opposition from traders as well as cryptocurrency proponents in the country. This has certainly been good news for the booming cryptocurrency industry in Thailand.
