Just saw that Pakistan's central bank finally lifted their crypto ban after 8 years. Wild that it took this long, but at least they're moving forward now. The catch? Only licensed companies can open crypto accounts, and everything has to be in PKR, not actual cryptos. Funds stay in segregated accounts, no mixing with company money. Banks can't touch customer funds for their own investments either. Pretty strict setup, but honestly makes sense for compliance. KYC and AML checks are mandatory. So basically they're opening the door to cryptos but keeping it on a tight leash. Good news for Pakistani traders though - this could actually unlock a lot of opportunities. The whole point seems to be building trust in the ecosystem while keeping things regulated. Guess when the whole world is adopting, you can't just sit on the sidelines forever. Curious how this actually plays out in practice.
