How a crypto exchange secretly hid $53M in stolen crypto to prevent a bank run

Thailand’s Securities and Exchange Commission has filed a criminal complaint against Bitkub Online and two former directors, alleging that the crypto exchange submitted daily net-capital reports, known as Form DA 1, that failed to show the effect of a 2021 theft involving about 1.7 billion baht (roughly $53 million) in customer assets.

The July 23, 2026, complaint to Thailand’s Economic Crime Suppression Division names Sakolkorn Sakavee and Thaweesap Rawan, who the SEC said were responsible for the reports when they were Bitkub directors. The regulator alleges that Bitkub gave false statements and that the two former directors made false entries in company documents.
