Argentina tightens crypto exchange rules with mixer ban and investor reporting
- —CNV Resolution 1172/2026 bans mixers and tumblers, mandates KYC and 10-year data retention
- —From November 1, 2026, exchanges must file monthly reports on clients, volumes and top-10 assets
- —Minimum capital for registration is up to $150,000; unregistered platforms face website blocking
- —The rules formally define BTC, USDT and USDC in Argentina's capital markets regulation
Why it matters: Argentina is following FATF recommendations, ramping up pressure on exchanges across Latin America after Brazil's own regulatory crackdown.
