IMF Raises Concern Over Pakistan’s Bitcoin Mining Power Plan 🇵🇰💸
In a bold move to tap into the booming digital economy, Pakistan has announced plans to allocate national power resources to support large-scale Bitcoin mining operations. But not everyone's impressed — the International Monetary Fund (IMF) has stepped in, voicing serious concerns over the energy implications and economic priorities of the plan.
The IMF warns that diverting precious energy — in a country already battling power shortages — toward crypto mining could undermine essential infrastructure and strain an already fragile economy. With rising energy costs and circular debt mounting in the power sector, critics say the move could backfire.
Pakistan’s government, however, sees Bitcoin mining as a potential revenue generator and a way to position itself in the global tech race. But at what cost?
Pakistan should focus on improving energy access and economic stability before experimenting with volatile ventures like crypto mining,” an IMF representative reportedly said.
The big question: Can Pakistan balance innovation with responsibility — or is this a high-voltage gamble waiting to short-circuit?
