Soi Bitcoin: A Street That Runs on Bitcoin

Imagine a single soi in Thailand where every shop, food stall, and service accepts Bitcoin. A destination built for the global Bitcoin community.

Explore the Vision

From a Single Soi to a Circular Economy

The idea is simple but powerful: work with the merchants of one entire soi to enable them to accept Bitcoin payments. This creates a unique, concentrated hub where Bitcoin is not just an investment, but a useful, everyday currency. It becomes a real-world example of a circular economy, where Bitcoin earned can be spent locally without ever needing to touch a traditional bank.

The Perfect Match

A Thai soi is the ideal setting. It's a self-contained ecosystem of small, independent businesses. Its intimate scale makes a coordinated effort achievable. Bitcoin is the perfect tool: borderless for tourists, low-fee for merchants, and empowering for individuals. Together, they create a powerful new model for local commerce.

More Than Just a Street

A successful Soi Bitcoin would be a proof-of-concept with a massive impact:

The Bitcoin ATM is yellow with the Bitcoin logo and text 'bitcoin ATM.' The setting appears to be a small shop or café with shelves of products in the background.

One screen shows 'Payment Sent' with a progress indicator, and the other shows 'Payment Received' with a green checkmark. The background includes a laptop and a wooden desk.

A Seed to Be Planted

Right now, Soi Bitcoin is a vision. It’s a concept being shared openly in the hope that it will inspire the right people. This is not a company or a funded project. It's an invitation to dream and collaborate on what could be.
