TLDR : Answer Summary
The 500k THB bank requirement does not need to be proven at every re-entry into Thailand. However, for extensions within the country, you are likely required to present your initial application paperwork along with proof of funds, although this is not yet definitively confirmed.

- Extensions in Thailand: Yes, it seems like it will be required but not 100% confirmed yet as no one has done it.

- Re-entry: Not required so far.

For re-entry no, for in country extension most likely need to show basically all your initial application paperwork and requirements
