In a stunning display of rapid progress, the Pakistan Crypto Council (PCC) has made waves on the international stage within just 50 days of its inception, elevating Pakistan’s presence in the global crypto industry and leaving analysts and observers around the world astounded.
According to the Ministry of Finance, the PCC was officially launched on March 14, 2025, yet its accomplishments in this brief span have already begun to redefine Pakistan’s narrative in the digital financial world. In a groundbreaking move, the Council made an announcement that turned global attention firmly toward Pakistan.
The most remarkable highlight has been the appointment of Changpeng Zhao (CZ), the legendary founder of Binance, as a Strategic Advisor to the Pakistan Crypto Council. CZ is not just any industry figure; he is a globally renowned entrepreneur who established the world’s largest cryptocurrency exchange and whose personal net worth has, at times, exceeded $100 billion.
For a developing country like Pakistan, securing a strategic advisory role from such a globally influential personality is nothing short of extraordinary. What makes this even more significant is that no other country in the region — including India — has achieved a comparable feat at the state level in the crypto space.
Adding further prestige and credibility to the Council’s activities, the PCC has also signed a Letter of Intent (LoI) with World Liberty Financial (WLF) — a prominent American blockchain initiative that has received the backing of former U.S. President Donald Trump. This strategic collaboration signals Pakistan’s entry into high-level blockchain partnerships and opens new doors for technological and financial cooperation with the West.
