3 月 17 日，据 Cryptoslate 报道，泰国中央调查局 (CIB) 官员上周五在巴吞他尼府的三栋废弃房屋中查获 63 台非法加密矿机，价值约 200 万泰铢（6 万美元）。当地居民抱怨有不明身份的人从该地区的电线杆和变压器上偷电，随后官员们进行了突袭。当地人怀疑被盗电力被用于隐藏在废弃建筑物中的加密货币挖矿作业。
调查人员估计，这三栋房屋因加密挖矿而被盗的电力预计给电力局造成超 1100 万泰铢（32.7 万美元）损失。警方表示，除采矿设备外，还缴获了三台加密货币采矿控制器、三台路由器、三台互联网信号增强器、三台改装电表、一台台式电脑、一台笔记本电脑和两本银行存折。警方发现该非法行动与曼谷 Khan Na Yao 区 Ram-Indra Soi 65 的一处豪宅有关。CIB 官员已申请搜查令，以突击搜查相关住所并找到团伙头目和其他同伙。当局指出，除对电力部门造成损害外，非法挖矿设备还存在重大火灾隐患，作业耗电量巨大却无人看管。
