#Gate广场创作者新春激励 Pakistan Reaches Stablecoin Payment Agreement with Cryptocurrency Company Linked to Trump
Reportedly, Pakistan has signed an agreement with the cryptocurrency firm World Liberty Financial, which is associated with the family of former U.S. President Donald Trump, to explore cross-border payments using its USD-pegged stablecoin.
According to Reuters on Wednesday, citing an informed source, the agreement involves a little-known company called SC Financial Technologies, affiliated with World Liberty Financial, marking the first public collaboration between a Trump-associated cryptocurrency enterprise and a sovereign nation.
Reuters reports that under the agreement, World Liberty Financial will collaborate with the State Bank of Pakistan to integrate its $1 stablecoin into a regulated digital payment framework. The token will work in tandem with Pakistan’s emerging digital currency infrastructure and may support cross-border transactions such as remittances.
Specific terms of the agreement have not been disclosed, and details about SC Financial Technologies remain limited.
It is reported that Pakistan is expected to officially announce the agreement later on Wednesday during World Liberty CEO Zack Witkoff’s visit to Islamabad.
World Liberty has gained attention for its role in major transactions. In May last year, Abu Dhabi-based state investment firm MGX used World Liberty’s stablecoin to facilitate its $200 million equity acquisition of the world’s largest cryptocurrency exchange, bn.
Earlier this week, World Liberty also launched World Liberty Markets, a new on-chain lending platform built on its $1 stablecoin and WLFI governance token. The platform allows users to post cryptocurrencies such as Ether as collateral.
Pakistan has been steadily advancing its digital financial agenda, aiming to become a global cryptocurrency hub. The country has taken significant steps to regulate its crypto ecosystem, including establishing the Pakistan Virtual Asset Regulatory Authority, allowing crypto exchanges bn and HTX to operate within the country, building Bitcoin reserves, and exploring real-world asset tokenization to attract foreign investment and increase liquidity.
