Kazakhstan's National Bank to create Digital Assets Committee
- —The committee will combine policy, licensing, supervision and innovation support
- —Full-cycle companies and stablecoins for settlements and transfers are planned
- —The tax regime will exempt individuals from personal income tax on transactions with local providers in 2026–2028
- —The volume of operations in the regulated environment grew 30-fold to $10.5 billion
Why it matters: Kazakhstan is moving about 1 million foreign wallets of its citizens into the regulated AIFC environment, intensifying competition for crypto infrastructure in the CIS.
