Is bitcoin legal in Kyrgyzstan?
Bitcoin is legal in Kyrgyzstan and the sector is actively regulated. The Law on Virtual Assets, in force since 2022, created licensing for virtual asset service providers overseen by the state financial markets regulator, and by early 2025 more than 140 licences had been issued to crypto exchanges and trading operators. The government has leaned in further since, appointing Binance founder Changpeng Zhao as a presidential adviser on digital assets and launching state-backed stablecoin and digital som projects.
