The President of Kyrgyzstan meets with Sun Yuchen, and TRON collaborates with Kyrgyzstan to build a new pattern of digital economy in Central Asia
The founder of TRON, Sun Yuchen, held formal talks with Kyrgyzstan President Sadyr Japarov in Bishkek, the capital of Kyrgyzstan. The meeting focused on the global digital financial transformation trends, the construction of a regulatory framework for virtual assets, and the strategic layout of the TRON ecosystem in Central Asia, marking a substantial stage in the cooperation between TRON and Kyrgyzstan in the fields of blockchain and artificial intelligence. This is TRON's first layout in the Central Asian region.
President Japarov has instructed the Secretariat of the National Committee for the Development of Virtual Assets and Blockchain Technology of Kyrgyzstan to effectively promote cooperation between the two sides and ensure that various joint initiatives are implemented.
The President's Strategic Vision Aligns with TRON's Core Advantages
During the talks, President Japarov pointed out that modern digital technology is creating a "New Digital Silk Road"—a global network connecting cooperation and financial freedom. He highly recognized TRON's technological leadership in the stablecoin infrastructure field and clearly stated: "Our goal is to make Kyrgyzstan a regional center for virtual assets and Web3 technology in Central Asia."
In response, Sun Yuchen stated that TRON, with its high throughput, near-instant transaction finality, and extremely low on-chain fees, has become the core infrastructure for global cross-border US dollar stablecoin settlements, naturally aligning with Kyrgyzstan's digital economy strategic direction. "President Japarov's visionary leadership has created a rare historical opportunity for Kyrgyzstan to lead in the digital age. TRON will support this vision with concrete and actionable projects," Sun Yuchen said.
President Japarov also emphasized the establishment of the National Committee for the Development of Virtual Assets and Blockchain Technology, which he personally leads, bringing together government agencies and internationally renowned industry experts.
"In less than a year, the committee has made significant progress, making a series of market-oriented decisions, including the potential issuance of a national stablecoin, testing of central bank digital currency (CBDC), and the introduction of a pilot regulatory framework," Japarov said.
He pointed out that Kyrgyzstan's open policies have effectively attracted large technology companies and global experts, and Sun Yuchen's visit is a strong testament to the growing attention from the international community towards the country.
"Our strategic goal is to make Kyrgyzstan a regional center for virtual assets and Web3 technology in Central Asia," President Japarov stated. He also noted that the industry is continuously expanding, the number of licensed participants is increasing, the regulatory system is improving, and infrastructure projects are accelerating.
Six Strategic Proposals to Empower Kyrgyzstan's Digital Transformation
During the talks, Sun Yuchen proposed six core strategic proposals for cooperation between TRON and Kyrgyzstan:
Support the construction of a regional digital economy center. Relying on Kyrgyzstan's already promulgated "Virtual Assets Law" and high-tech park policy framework, fully assist the country in becoming a benchmark demonstration country in the field of AI and digital economy in Central Asia.
Expand the KGST national stablecoin ecosystem. Promote the large-scale deployment of Kyrgyzstan's national stablecoin KGST on the TRON network, leveraging TRON's world-leading stablecoin settlement capabilities to enhance KGST's international circulation coverage and actual usage value.
Strategic fintech investment. Jointly promote the construction of cryptocurrency exchanges and the development of digital banking services, solidifying the underlying infrastructure of Kyrgyzstan's fintech industry.
Joint R&D of sovereign large language models (LLM). Develop a localized AI large model specifically supporting the Kyrgyz language, strengthening national digital sovereignty, and serving local government, education, and industrial application scenarios.
AI-crypto fusion innovation sandbox. Establish a joint experimental platform for AI and blockchain technology, and integrate KGST payment functions into the B.AI intelligent ecosystem, exploring new models of AI-driven digital economy.
Construction of green data center infrastructure. Utilize Kyrgyzstan's abundant hydropower resources to plan and build large-scale data centers driven by clean energy, providing sustainable computing power support for regional digital infrastructure.
Jointly Build the Digital Future of Central Asia
In recent years, Kyrgyzstan has made significant progress in digital economy legislation and regulatory system construction, with IT exports continuing to grow, and the issuance of the KGST national stablecoin and the advancement of the central bank digital currency (CBDC) pilot project proceeding in an orderly manner. The strategic cooperation with TRON will further accelerate the country's integration into the global digital financial system.
President Japarov cited data from Chainalysis, indicating that Kyrgyzstan ranks 19th in the global cryptocurrency adoption index, leading Central Asia, which further highlights the urgent need to build a transparent and reliable regulatory environment.
President Japarov also revealed that the amendment to the "Virtual Assets Law" was passed earlier this year and that a new government agency responsible for regulation and licensing in this field will be designated soon.
As a leading public chain infrastructure globally, TRON currently processes tens of millions of transactions daily, with the circulation scale of stablecoins ranking among the top in the world. Sun Yuchen stated that Kyrgyzstan has a large population of highly educated young people, abundant renewable energy reserves, and an open and inclusive digital policy environment, making it uniquely positioned to become a core node in the digital economy of Central Asia. TRON will leverage technology, resources, and a global network to work with Kyrgyzstan to turn this strategic potential into tangible economic benefits.
Sun Yuchen also introduced and explained the operational situation of the international cryptocurrency exchange Huobi HTX and its plans to apply for an operating license in Kyrgyzstan to President Japarov, expressing support for the initiatives proposed by President Japarov to enhance digital literacy and promote the popularization of blockchain technology and artificial intelligence.
Sun Yuchen expressed confidence that Kyrgyzstan's exploratory experience could provide valuable references for neighboring countries and that he is optimistic about the country becoming a strategic partner for TRON to expand its business in Central Asia and increase service scale.
