IMF plans special session on Bitcoin mining plan
The IMF delegation, currently conducting virtual discussions with Pakistani officials, is expected to schedule a separate session dedicated to the government’s electricity plan for Bitcoin
$104,287
mining and AI operations.
The electricity allocation is part of a wider national strategy to integrate digital assets into Pakistan’s economy. A key component of this plan is the establishment of the Pakistan Digital Asset Authority (PDAA), approved by the Finance Ministry on May 21.
The PDAA will regulate exchanges, wallets, stablecoins, and DeFi platforms while overseeing the tokenization of national assets in line with international frameworks such as those of the Financial Action Task Force (FATF).
The development follows Pakistan’s high-profile debut of its first strategic Bitcoin reserve at the Bitcoin Vegas 2025 conference last week — an event signaling Islamabad’s pivot
toward digital finance.
During the conference, Bilal bin Saqib, crypto adviser to Prime Minister Shehbaz Sharif, announced the launch of a national Bitcoin wallet and the government’s commitment to support the digital asset sector.
