Hey, here’s something I found interesting: Argentina now leads all of Latin America in cryptocurrency ownership, with 19.8% of the population holding some kind of crypto. More than Brazil and El Salvador!
What’s wild is that most of this growth comes from younger people (18 - 35), with almost 22% using crypto, mainly to hedge against inflation and for global transactions. And it’s not just here: the whole region grew 18.3% in Q2 2025, with six countries accounting for 80% of crypto ownership in LATAM.
Analysts say that as long as Argentina’s economy stays unstable, people will keep using crypto as an alternative to traditional banking. Even global companies like Bitget are expanding their services in the region.
Do you use crypto? Do you see it more as an investment, or more like a tool to deal with inflation and make international payments?
