赵长鹏任巴基斯坦加密货币委员会战略顾问，币安布局再升级

巴基斯坦财政部发布的一份新闻稿称，币安的亿万富翁创始人赵长鹏周一被任命为巴基斯坦加密货币委员会（PCC）的战略顾问。

巴基斯坦加密货币委员会（PCC）上个月正式成立，旨在将区块链技术和数字资产“规范并融入”该国的金融体系。

2月25日，在财政部长穆罕默德·奥朗泽布与一个外国代表团会晤后，财政部宣布正在考虑“成立一个国家加密货币委员会”，以便顺应全球趋势采用新兴的数字货币。3月，政府任命企业家比拉尔·本·萨基布为财政部长在该委员会的首席顾问。

根据今天发布的一份新闻稿，任命赵长鹏为战略顾问这一“开创性举措”有望重塑全球加密货币格局。

今天，在由奥朗泽布主持的赵长鹏与巴基斯坦加密货币委员会的会议上宣布了这一任命，此次会议汇集了政府的主要利益相关者。

新闻稿称，赵长鹏分别与巴基斯坦总理夏巴兹·谢里夫和副总理伊沙克·达尔举行了会晤。

奥朗泽布表示：“这对巴基斯坦来说是一个具有里程碑意义的时刻。我们向世界传递了一个明确的信息：巴基斯坦对创新持开放态度。有了赵长鹏的加入，我们正在加快实现让巴基斯坦成为Web3、数字金融和由区块链驱动的经济增长的地区强国这一愿景。”

巴基斯坦加密货币委员会首席执行官萨基布称，巴基斯坦正在“向金融的未来敞开大门”。

萨基布表示：“在这段旅程中，还有谁比赵长鹏更适合来指导我们呢？他是一位先驱者，创建了世界上最大的加密货币交易所，并且改变了数十亿人对金融自由的看法。”

新闻稿称，作为该委员会的官方战略顾问，赵长鹏将在监管、基础设施、教育以及推广应用等方面提供指导。

新闻稿还称，他将与政府和私营部门密切合作，打造一个合规、包容且在全球具有竞争力的加密货币生态系统。

新闻稿援引赵长鹏的话称：“巴基斯坦是一个拥有2.4亿人口的国家，其中超过60%的人年龄在30岁以下。这里的潜力是无限的。”

新闻稿称，赵长鹏的任命标志着一个大胆的新时代的到来，在这个时代，巴基斯坦加入了新加坡、迪拜和瑞士的行列，成为一个进步的、为Web3做好准备的国家。

Binance’s billionaire founder Changpeng Zhao on Monday was appointed as a strategic adviser to the Pakistan Crypto Council (PCC), a press release issued by the Finance Division said.

The Pakistan Crypto Council (PCC) was officially launched last month to “regulate and integrate blockchain technology and digital assets” into the country’s financial landscape.

On February 25, following a meeting between Finance Minister Muhammad Aurangzeb and a foreign delegation, the finance ministry announced it was considering “establishing a National Crypto Council” to adopt emerging digital currencies in line with global trends. In March, the government appointed]3 entrepreneur Bilal Bin Saqib as the chief adviser to the finance minister on the council.

According to a press release issued today, the “groundbreaking move” of appointing Zhao as a strategic adviser was poised to reshape the global crypto landscape.

The announcement was made today during Zhao’s meeting with the PCC, chaired by Aurangzeb, bringing together key government stakeholders.

It said that Zhao held separate meetings with Prime Minister Shehbaz Sharif and Deputy Prime Minister Ishaq Dar.

“This is a landmark moment for Pakistan,” said Aurangzeb. “We are sending a clear message to the world: Pakistan is open for innovation. With Zhao onboard, we are accelerating our vision to make Pakistan a regional powerhouse for Web3, digital finance, and blockchain-driven growth.

PCC CEO Saqib said Pakistan was “opening its doors to the future of finance”.

“And who better to guide us on this journey than Zhao — a pioneer who built the world’s largest crypto exchange and changed the way billions think about financial freedom,” Saqib said.

The press release said that as an official strategic adviser to the council, Zhao would provide guidance on regulation, infrastructure, education, and adoption.

It said that he would work closely with the government and the private sector to create a compliant, inclusive, and globally competitive crypto ecosystem.

“Pakistan is a country of 240 million people, over 60 per cent of whom are under the age of 30. The potential here is limitless,” Zhao was quoted as saying in the press release.

Zhao’s appointment signalled a bold new era, where the country joined the ranks of Singapore, Dubai, and Switzerland as a progressive, Web3-ready nation, the press release said.
