Argentina's Central Bank Reaffirms Crypto Ban, Citing Economic Fragility

  • —BCRA keeps its 2022 ban on crypto services for financial institutions
  • —Supervision head Juan Curutchet says Argentina's economy is too fragile for crypto integration
  • —Lifting the ban depends on economic conditions and may be discussed in Milei's second term
Why it matters: Argentina is one of Latin America's largest crypto markets, and the continued ban limits banks' access to digital assets.
