How should I present my financial documents for a Muay Thai visa application in Thailand?

I'm a US citizen applying in Jakarta this week and have a few questions for the group regarding Muay Thai soft power application and submission of documents.

I've merged 3 months bank statements into a single PDF and I'm wondering if it would be helpful to highlight the closing balance on the most recent statement?

For those that included a screenshot of the exchange rate for the day of submission, did you merge it into a PDF with your statements and keep it as the first page of the document?

I'm thinking of ordering my financial documents like this:

1. Official balance letter from bank.

2. Screenshot of account balance from my banking app on day of submission.

3. Exchange rate on day of submission.

4. 3 months bank statements ( balance topped up 3 weeks ago and only most recent statement reflects 500k+).

Also, I'm currently unemployed and primarily sustain myself from my cryptocurrency investments (they will be able to see withdrawals from Coinbase for the top up). Would it be reccomended to tick the unemployed box?

Thank you to the group and I would appreciate any insight you all may have!

TLDR : Answer Summary
The individual, a US citizen applying for a Muay Thai visa in Jakarta, seeks advice on how to structure and present their financial documents, particularly highlighting their bank statements and the application of cryptocurrency as an income source. They inquire whether to emphasize their current balance, whether to include a screenshot of the exchange rate, and if it is advisable to claim unemployment status given that their income is derived from cryptocurrency investments. Responses from the community suggest presenting oneself as an investor rather than unemployed, emphasizing relevant financial details, and organizing documents appropriately to avoid complications in the visa application process.

It's always a good idea to highlight the relevant things, your name on the account the bank balance at the end of the month, currency conversion rate if it's a different currency, blah blah blah

You are not unemployed, you are an investor.

do not mention that you're unemployed, you will be deemed as "high-risk" and maybe subject to extra scrutiny such as requiring 6months of bank statements, advance rental agreemet or they might just straight up deny your application since you're still making money from crypto, just sell yourself as a crypto trader or whatever.
