However, she emphasized that the bank does not intend to make large direct investments in cryptocurrencies.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>She also explained that the bank is currently identifying companies involved in digital assets, particularly those that support cryptocurrency infrastructure, and the selection process is still underway.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Reuters further reported that as of February 1 the central bank held more than 69 billion dollars in gold and foreign exchange reserves, while the national fund managed assets worth about 65 billion dollars.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>It is also important to note that Kazakhstan has considered creating such a fund for some time. An earlier report suggested that the fund might also include cryptocurrencies seized by law enforcement agencies as part of a national digital asset reserve.#cryptonews <a href=\"https:\/\/coinsignals.net\">https:\/\/coinsignals.net<\/a><a href=\"https:\/\/t.me\/coinsignalpublic\"> <\/a><a href=\"https:\/\/t.me\/coinsignalpublic\">https:\/\/t.me\/coinsignalpublic<\/a> <\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Earlier plans from the country\u2019s central bank suggested that the fund would be created using cryptocurrencies confiscated by law enforcement agencies.
