According to Cas Abbé, the Pakistan Crypto Council (PCC) was established in March 2025 under Finance Minister Muhammad Aurangzeb, with Bilal Bin Saqib appointed as CEO (source: Cas Abbé, Twitter, June 5, 2025). The PCC's main objectives are to regulate blockchain and digital assets in Pakistan and promote cryptocurrency adoption. For traders, this signals a significant step towards legal clarity and regulatory framework, potentially increasing institutional and retail participation in Pakistan's crypto market. The establishment of PCC is expected to boost trading volumes and attract global crypto exchanges interested in local partnerships, leading to improved liquidity and fostering a safer trading environment for digital assets in South Asia.
