Kyrgyzstan is set to launch a gold-backed stablecoin called the Gold Dollar (USDKG) in the third quarter of 2025. The stablecoin will be pegged to the U.S. dollar and initially backed by $500 million in gold reserves held by the Kyrgyz Ministry of Finance, with plans to increase these reserves to $2 billion. Binance founder Changpeng Zhao (CZ), who recently joined Kyrgyzstan's National Crypto Committee, has proposed that the country consider Bitcoin (BTC) and Binance Coin (BNB) as primary assets for its National Crypto Reserve. Meanwhile, Bhutan has partnered with Binance Pay and DK Bank to introduce the world’s first national crypto tourism payment system, enabling travelers to use cryptocurrency for payments within the country. This initiative marks a notable advancement in crypto adoption for Bhutan.
