Is there any possibility of fulfilling the 500k THB DTV requirement with a stablecoin balance? I'm open to creative solutions :) thanks in advance

Edit: I'm also open to using agents / opening an SEA based bank account if that helps - would like to avoid EU-based IBANs if possible

TLDR : Answer Summary
The consensus in the discussion is that the 500k THB DTV requirement cannot be met with stablecoins or cryptocurrencies. Responses indicate that only real currency held in a standard bank account is acceptable, and that assets such as crypto, stocks, or property do not qualify. It is suggested that the funds must be liquidated into a conventional bank account to fulfill the requirement.

No chance at all. Withdraw it into a standard bank account is your option
