CZ Reveals the Crypto Playbook He Is Pitching to Governments

Binance founder Changpeng Zhao (CZ) is urging governments to tokenize their stock markets and issue national stablecoins, framing sovereign blockchain adoption as the next phase of crypto after meetings with Asian leaders and regulators.

He shared the advice in two posts, arguing that countries tokenizing equities can attract worldwide buyers while national stablecoins expand local currency usage on the blockchain.

Why CZ Wants Countries to Tokenize Stocks

CZ said he posted the recommendations after meeting several country leaders and regulators across Asia. He described the talks as making good progress but did not name the countries involved.

His pitch centers on real world assets (RWA). Tokenized equities turn company shares into blockchain tokens that can trade around the clock, a model now moving into practice.

Supporters say the approach offers fractional ownership, faster settlement, and access for buyers outside traditional brokerages. No country has yet tokenized its full stock exchange.

The wider RWA market has grown quickly. Tokenized real world assets on public blockchains topped $32 billion by mid-2026, up from about $6 billion a year earlier, RWA.xyz data shows.

Several exchanges already list tokenized stocks and ETFs tied to major U.S. companies. Boston Consulting Group projects tokenization could reach $16 trillion by 2030.

" "Countries need to tokenize their stocks, allowing worldwide buyers. (RWA) Countries need to issue their own stablecoin(s), to expand their currency's usage on the blockchain," CZ shared.

National Stablecoins and the Push Beyond the Dollar

CZ also wants governments to issue fiat-backed stablecoins. He argues this would extend a currency's reach across blockchain rails and support its next growth phase.

Dollar-pegged tokens make up close to 99% of the roughly $315 billion stablecoin market, led by Tether (USDT) and USD Coin (USDC), DefiLlama figures show.

National versions could reduce that dependence while keeping monetary control closer to home.

The message builds on his advisory work. CZ serves as a strategic adviser to the Pakistan Crypto Council and is advising Kyrgyzstan on crypto as it builds a gold-backed stablecoin.

Binance also secured approval to develop a crypto marketplace in Kazakhstan.

Binance co-CEO Richard Teng pointed to rising demand. He said 36% of emerging-market users on the platform now keep at least half their money in stablecoins.

"Stablecoins are changing everyday life in many countries.

Why? Because they make life easier.

He framed the trend as evidence that the tokens already make everyday payments easier.

BNB, the token tied to CZ's ecosystem, traded near $599, down about 1% over 24 hours.

Governments adopting his playbook could shape how fast traditional markets move on-chain.
