🇵🇰 How to Buy Bitcoin in Pakistan
Even though Pakistan’s State Bank hasn’t fully legalized crypto trading, you can still legally own and trade Bitcoin via international platforms. Here are proven routes:
1. Centralized Exchanges (CEX)
• Binance: Sign up, complete KYC, then buy BTC using debit/credit, P2P, or third-party payments .
• CEX.IO: Register, verify, deposit via Visa/Mastercard or bank transfer, and instantly convert to BTC .
• Bitget: Simple 3‑step sign-up, card deposit, and instant BTC purchase (sometimes fee-free) .
2. Peer‑to‑Peer (P2P) Trading
• Platforms like Binance P2P or LocalCoinSwap let you buy from locals via bank transfers, Easypaisa, etc. Exercise caution—verify seller reputation to avoid scams .
3. Bitcoin ATMs
• A few exist in major cities like Karachi, Islamabad, and Lahore. Ensure they support purchases (some are one-way) .
4. Escrow-backed Marketplaces
• Services like Symlix offer Easypaisa escrow trades—adds a safety layer .
🔐 Risks & Regulatory Considerations
• Cryptocurrency isn’t officially regulated yet—State Bank of Pakistan has cautioned against its use, though ownership isn’t banned .
• The new Pakistan Crypto Council (PCC), launched in March 2025, aims to eventually regulate digital assets—but formal frameworks are still in progress .
