Further details from the SBP’s website revealed that the cumulative RDA inflow stood at $7.195 billion by the end of the previous month. Of this, $1.538 billion has been repatriated, and $4.442 billion has been utilized locally, resulting in a total net repatriable liability of $1.215 billion as of December end.

  1. MY PERSONAL EXPERIENCE ON LOST CRYPTO RECOVERY!

    I read so many stories about bitcoin loss to scams. I will like to start by saying the agencies responsible for bitcoin security has really done nothing to help locate stolen or lost coins. In my situation my MacBook was hacked by someone that had access to my emails, i immediately contacted blockchain and they only wasted my time, after which i worked towards getting help else where, i was referred to consult a bitcoin expert who helped track and retrieved my 3.3 btc, for an agreed fee. I was more than grateful and willing to pay more after the job was done. Thankful i didn’t fall victim and would like to recommend ( MORRIS GRAY 830 @ G maiL . COM )
