Pakistan Establishes Digital Assets Authority to Regulate Crypto Market
Pakistan has launched the Pakistan Digital Assets Authority (PDAA) to oversee its burgeoning cryptocurrency sector, targeting an estimated $25 billion in informal digital asset flows. The regulatory body will manage licensing, enforce compliance, and foster blockchain innovation in financial services.
The move follows Binance co-founder Changpeng Zhao’s advisory role with the Pakistan Crypto Council in March. PDAA’s mandate includes facilitating asset tokenization and regulated Bitcoin mining operations—a strategic push to formalize the crypto economy and attract foreign capital.
Exchanges, custodians, and DeFi platforms now face structured oversight as the government positions Pakistan as a regulated hub for digital assets in emerging markets.
