A recent agreement between Pakistan and World Liberty Financial (WLF), a cryptocurrency firm reportedly 60% owned by the family of former U.S. President Donald Trump, has drawn significant attention and scrutiny due to its geopolitical and ethical implications.

Pakistan is actively exploring the adoption of digital currencies. The government is considering establishing a National Crypto Council to develop regulatory frameworks and promote blockchain technology. Finance Minister Muhammad Aurangzeb has emphasized the importance of aligning with international best practices and complying with Financial Action Task Force (FATF) guidelines.

With over 25 million active crypto users and $300 billion in annual crypto transactions, Pakistan is among the top countries in global crypto adoption.
