Kazakhstan’s CBDC Trial To Utilize Binance’s BNB Chain
- As NKB said before, the Digital Tenge will be released in late 2022.
- CZ said that the NKB recently conducted a CBDC “pilot in a controlled environment.”
Kazakhstan seems to be quite receptive to the cryptocurrency market. Binance recently received permission to legally do business there. Also, CEO Changpeng Zhao of the exchange said that trials of CBDC integration on the BNB Chain will be conducted in the nation.
Recently, Binance’s CEO CZ tweeted that the exchange has pitched the idea of the BNB Chain to the National Bank of Kazakhstan [NKB]. Digital Tenge/BNB Chain integration became a viable topic of discussion.
The Binance CEO stated:
“Looking forward to NBK preparing CBDC use cases to see how they could be integrated into #BNB Chain to bridge the gap between traditional banking and the crypto ecosystem.”
Regulatory Framework Next
It’s worth noting that the government and the central bank of Kazakhstan have been working on launching their own CBDC for some time now. As NKB said before, the Digital Tenge will be released in late 2022. Additionally, CZ said that the NKB recently conducted a CBDC “pilot in a controlled environment and with real consumers and merchants.”
Binance was seen creating the groundwork to dominate Kazakhstan’s cryptocurrency industry, as was described before. Binance will help the country regulate the market since it has obtained the necessary permits to operate there. The company’s original intention, per the MoU, signed before, was to help the government of that nation establish guidelines for crypto.
The corporation and the Agency of the Republic of Kazakhstan for Financial Monitoring have renewed their MOU. This is done so that the exchange can help the authorities identify and remove any cryptocurrency that was gained unlawfully.
