CZ: Pakistan Could Become Leading Global Crypto Market by 2030 With Current Regulatory Momentum

Binance founder CZ said on Dec. 31 that Pakistan could join the ranks of leading global cryptocurrency markets by 2030 if it maintains its current pace on regulation and real-world adoption, BlockBeats reports. He praised the country's leadership for moving quickly and recognizing demand for digital assets from its young, tech-savvy population, citing steps such as creating a virtual asset regulator, allowing Binance and HTX to operate in compliance, exploring Bitcoin reserves, and advancing real-world asset tokenization to attract foreign capital and improve liquidity. On stock market tokenization, CZ said this would allow global investors to access Pakistani assets directly and described it as a "truly global investment channel", adding that jurisdictions that move first may see the largest benefits.
