Pakistan has appointed Michael Saylor, Executive Chairman of Strategy and a leading Bitcoin advocate, as a strategic advisor to guide the nation's cryptocurrency and blockchain initiatives.

In a significant move, Michael Saylor met with Pakistan's Finance Minister Muhammad Aurangzeb and Minister for Crypto and Blockchain Bilal Bin Saqib to discuss integrating Bitcoin into the country's financial strategy. Saylor emphasized the importance of clear policies, stating that "markets reward clarity," and highlighted Pakistan's potential to attract global investment through a stable, innovation-driven regulatory framework.

This appointment aligns with Pakistan's broader efforts to become a leader in digital finance. Earlier this year, the country launched its first Strategic Bitcoin Reserve and established the Pakistan Digital Assets Authority (PDAA) and the Pakistan Crypto Council (PCC) to shape regulations and attract international players.

With over 40 million crypto wallet users and a young, tech-savvy population, Pakistan is positioning itself as a forward-thinking nation in the global crypto economy.
