Why do you want one if your income isn’t coming from Thailand?

When you transfer your money from your country to a Thai bank you will pay fees and depending on the bank may lose money from the exchange rate.

Just pay the 220 baht ATM fee on max withdrawal amount.

Do you transfer your crypto profits to your bank often? If so show the statements of those transactions as income and also show the statement of the total amount of your savings in your bank. They don’t care about crypto.
