[Central Bank of Kazakhstan: Plans to Issue Tokenized Government Bonds in Q1 2027] The Governor of the Central Bank of Kazakhstan, Timur Suleimenov, stated that the central bank plans to issue tokenized government bonds in cooperation with the Ministry of Finance in the first quarter of 2027. Earlier this month, the Central Bank of Kazakhstan sold 50 billion tenge of 91-day central bank bills through the Kazakhstan Stock Exchange, of which 10 billion tenge was issued in tokenized form, equivalent to approximately US$22.3 million. The weighted average yield of these bills was 15.72%, and total demand was 1.4 times the issuance amount. The Kazakhstan Stock Exchange's digital asset platform uses the Solana blockchain, and BitGo provides the custody infrastructure. It is currently unclear whether either of them will participate in the proposed government bond issuance. (Source: CoinDesk)
