On 24 July, SEC Thailand initiated criminal proceedings against Bitkub Online and two former directors, Sakolkorn Sakavee and Thaweesap Rawan, in the Economic Crime Suppression Branch on 23 July, alleging the theft of some 1.7 billion Thai baht (approximately $50 million) in a false daily net capital report to the regulatory authority between 10 May and 30 October of the same year, following the hacking of 2021.

In response, Bitkub stated that the incident had occurred about five years earlier when the persons concerned had chosen not to disclose stolen information in order to avoid a run-off, that the co-founder had purchased out of his own pocket the same number and type of digital assets to fill the gap, that the customer ' s assets had not been lost, and that the Thai SEC had confirmed the security of the customer ' s assets on 8 September 2025。

On Friday, 24 July, Brent's crude oil futures fell by more than 3 per cent, following a break of $100. However, oil prices are still expected to rise significantly this week owing to the increased disruption of energy transmission in the Red Sea and concerns about the further escalation of the war in Iran, and a 10 per cent weekly increase is still being maintained. “The supply of crude oil has again been squeezed and prices have inevitably risen as a result of the continued United States attack on Iran, the further involvement of Houthi forces in the Red Sea and the interruption of the CPC pipeline.” According to Rystad analyst Janif Sha, it appears that the current disruption in the Strait of Hormuz is close to its peak in March.
