**CZ Joins Pakistan’s Crypto Council: A New Chapter for Crypto Adoption**

Changpeng “CZ” Zhao, co-founder and former CEO of Binance, has been appointed as a strategic advisor to Pakistan’s newly established Crypto Council. His involvement signals a major step in the country's crypto journey.

Pakistan’s growing interest in cryptocurrency is driven by several key factors: a large unbanked population, significant remittance inflows, a predominantly young population, and ongoing challenges like rising inflation and currency devaluation.

CZ’s advisory role adds credibility to Pakistan’s crypto regulatory efforts, provides access to global industry expertise, and boosts investor confidence—especially among international players and venture capitalists eyeing opportunities in the country’s evolving crypto landscape. His presence could help pave the way for clearer regulation and broader adoption.
