“The price of inaction is way greater.” — Bilal Bin Saqib MBE, Chairman at Pakistan Virtual Assets Regulatory Authority
Bin Saqib’s comments reflected the reality many emerging markets live with every day: currency risk isn’t theoretical.
Rather than pitching Bitcoin as a speculative bet, he framed it as a defensive tool — something to be explored carefully through regulation, energy-backed mining, and limited allocation when depreciation is already doing damage.
What stood out:
✅ Currency risk as the starting point, not upside
✅ Mining used to convert surplus energy into reserves
✅ Regulation emphasized over promotion
✅ On-chain usage driven by remittances and youth
The signal here is pragmatic. For emerging markets, Bitcoin isn’t about leading narratives — it’s about avoiding being left with no options at all.
