CZ Joins Pakistan’s Crypto Council: A Major Step Toward Mainstream Adoption

Changpeng "CZ" Zhao, co-founder and former CEO of Binance, has officially joined Pakistan’s newly established Crypto Council as a strategic advisor. His inclusion marks a significant milestone in Pakistan’s journey toward embracing digital assets.

Why is Pakistan leaning into crypto?

A large unbanked population

Strong remittance inflows

A predominantly young population

Persistent inflation and currency devaluation

CZ's advisory role adds weight in several ways:

Boosts the legitimacy of Pakistan’s efforts to regulate crypto

Provides access to global expertise and insights

Increases confidence among international investors and venture capitalists

Paves the way for clearer, more structured crypto policy development

With CZ on board, Pakistan’s crypto landscape could be poised for transformation.
