Pakistan, it seems, has decided to take the crypto bull by the horns, and who better to help them tame the beast than the inimitable Michael Saylor, a billionaire chap with a penchant for all things Bitcoin? 🤑 The fellow has offered his expertise to the country in its quest to craft a digital currency policy that will make the world sit up and take notice. And, by Jove, it’s a jolly good show! 🎉
Despite the Middle East being a bit of a hot potato, what with the Israel-Iran kerfuffle and all that, the global market seems to be taking it all in stride, rather like a chap who’s got a stiff upper lip and all that rot. And Saylor’s arrival on the scene has given the 40 million crypto enthusiasts in Pakistan a bit of a boost, rather like a shot of adrenaline to the old system. 💉
Bitcoin pioneer Michael Saylor met with Finance Minister Muhammad Aurangzeb & Minister of State for Crypto Bilal Bin Saqib to discuss using #Bitcoin for national reserves & digital transformation.

On a sunny Sunday in Islamabad, Saylor had a chinwag with Finance Minister Muhammad Aurangzeb and State Minister for Blockchain and Crypto, Bilal Bin Saqib. It was a “landmark” moment, don’t you know, rather like a chap who’s just discovered the secret to making a perfect cup of tea. ☕️ Saylor was chuffed to bits with Pakistan’s vision and offered to lend a hand in shaping their digital asset policies. He pointed out that the country has “many brilliant people” and the potential to show “intellectual leadership” to the rest of the world, rather like a chap who’s just been elected captain of the cricket team. 🏏
He told the ministers that when markets trust a leader, they bring in the moolah, just like they did with his company, which saw a spiffing growth after investing in Bitcoin. Strategy now holds a whopping 582,000 BTC, valued at over $62 billion as of June 2025, and its market cap has gone from $1.2 billion to over $105 billion since 2020. Saylor’s recent post hinted that the company is planning to buy more BTC soon, rather like a chap who’s just discovered a new favorite flavor of ice cream. 🍦
Pakistan’s Crypto Ambitions
The country is making cracking progress, if I do say so myself. In March, Pakistan launched the Pakistan Crypto Council (PCC) to help build crypto laws, rather like a chap who’s just built a new shed in his backyard. 🛠️ In April, it introduced its first-ever crypto policy 2025, designed to meet global compliance standards, rather like a chap who’s just got a new suit tailored to perfection. 👕
The government is also fast-tracking legislation drafted by the PCC, rather like a chap who’s just got a new sports car and can’t wait to take it for a spin. 🏎️ Saqib, who heads the council, revealed plans to set up a national Bitcoin reserve, a jolly bold move that signals Pakistan’s commitment to becoming a crypto-forward economy. Meanwhile, Saylor encouraged Pakistan’s idea of creating a Bitcoin reserve, basically a stash of Bitcoin that the country would keep like gold, rather like a chap who’s just discovered a new favorite hobby. 🏊♂️
