Driven by an evolving <a href=\"https:\/\/www.sygna.io\/blog\/why-regulations-will-benefit-the-crypto-industry-in-the-long-run\/\">regulatory environment<\/a>, unique social conditions, access to energy, and a few forward-thinking politicians, the region may become one of a number of influential global hubs for the emerging technology. This article seeks to survey some of the <a href=\"https:\/\/www.sygna.io\/blog\/fatf-travel-rule-implementation-and-vasp-crypto-regulation-2022\/\">regulations<\/a> influencing several of the region&#8217;s crypto hubs.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<div style=\"height:30px\" aria-hidden=\"true\" class=\"wp-block-spacer\"><\/div>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-image\"><figure class=\"aligncenter size-full\"><img decoding=\"async\" width=\"640\" height=\"391\" src=\"https:\/\/www.sygna.io\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/05\/Untitled-design-11.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-7130\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.sygna.io\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/05\/Untitled-design-11.jpg 640w, https:\/\/www.sygna.io\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/05\/Untitled-design-11-600x367.jpg 600w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 640px) 100vw, 640px\" \/><figcaption>Source: Coinquill<\/figcaption><\/figure><\/div>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"why-latin-america\">Why Latin America?<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<div style=\"height:30px\" aria-hidden=\"true\" class=\"wp-block-spacer\"><\/div>\n\n\n\n<p>Global regulatory policies towards cryptocurrency <a href=\"https:\/\/www.sygna.io\/blog\/binance-demands-global-regulatory-framework-with-10-fundamental-rights-for-crypto-users\/\">fall<\/a> somewhere between banning it completely and embracing it fully. Tellingly, recent years have seen China ban it, <a href=\"https:\/\/www.sygna.io\/blog\/russia-sanctions-and-bitcoin-more-crypto-regulations-coming\/\">Russia sanction<\/a> it, and El Salvador and the Central African Republic <a href=\"https:\/\/www.sygna.io\/blog\/russia-sanctions-and-bitcoin-more-crypto-regulations-coming\/\">rush to embrace it<\/a>.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Latin America is a historical latecomer to the tech industry, but it could emerge as a global leader this time in the nascent crypto industry. This is due to the following considerations:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\"><li>A significant population of unbanked individuals&nbsp;<\/li><li>Economic turmoil and reliance on US dollar\/foreign remittances&nbsp;<\/li><li>Favorable regulatory environments&nbsp;<\/li><li>Access to sustainable (or at least affordable) energy<\/li><\/ul>\n\n\n\n<div style=\"height:30px\" aria-hidden=\"true\" class=\"wp-block-spacer\"><\/div>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"the-unbanked\">The Unbanked<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<div style=\"height:30px\" aria-hidden=\"true\" class=\"wp-block-spacer\"><\/div>\n\n\n\n<p>Many Latin American countries suffer from poverty and lack of access to financial infrastructure \u2014 including traditional banking and financial services. Without the ability to transfer and save money, escaping from poverty becomes difficult. Bitcoin and decentralized finance <a href=\"https:\/\/www.sygna.io\/blog\/sec-investigates-uniswap-whats-next-for-defi-regulation\/\">(DeFi)<\/a> may remedy this situation.\u00a0<\/p>\n\n\n\n<div style=\"height:30px\" aria-hidden=\"true\" class=\"wp-block-spacer\"><\/div>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"reliance-on-usd-and-foreign-remittances\">Reliance on USD and Foreign Remittances<strong>&nbsp;<\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<div style=\"height:30px\" aria-hidden=\"true\" class=\"wp-block-spacer\"><\/div>\n\n\n\n<p>Many Latin American countries either tether their currency to the US dollar, hold significant quantities of it in foreign reserves, or use it for day-to-day business. This places these countries at the mercy of the US economy and often leaves them beholden to the whims of a foreign government. This situation is exacerbated by economic reliance on <a href=\"https:\/\/www.cnbc.com\/2021\/09\/09\/el-salvador-bitcoin-move-could-cost-western-union-400-million-a-year.html#:~:text=In%202020%2C%20El%20Salvador%20received,of%20its%20gross%20domestic%20product.\">foreign remittances<\/a>.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<div style=\"height:30px\" aria-hidden=\"true\" class=\"wp-block-spacer\"><\/div>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"favorable-regulatory-and-energy-environments\">Favorable Regulatory and Energy Environments<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<div style=\"height:30px\" aria-hidden=\"true\" class=\"wp-block-spacer\"><\/div>\n\n\n\n<p>Motivated either by a desire for greater economic\/political autonomy or an inclination towards new technology, some of the region&#8217;s politicians are promoting cryptocurrency as a comprehensive solution. Alternatively, many of the countries in this region have accepted that they cannot stop crypto\u2019s growth and need to regulate it in order to facilitate taxation and assure adherence to <a href=\"https:\/\/www.sygna.io\/blog\/fatf-crypto-travel-rule-vs-aml-know-your-customer-kyc\/#:~:text=The%20Travel%20Rule%20is%20a,responsibility%20to%20report%20suspicious%20activities.\">global standards<\/a> promulgated by the <a href=\"https:\/\/www.sygna.io\/blog\/fatf-travel-rule-solution-technology-lens\/\">Financial Action Task Force (FATF)<\/a>.&nbsp;&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<div style=\"height:30px\" aria-hidden=\"true\" class=\"wp-block-spacer\"><\/div>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"state-of-regulation-by-country\">State of Regulation by Country<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<div style=\"height:30px\" aria-hidden=\"true\" class=\"wp-block-spacer\"><\/div>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"colombia\">Colombia&nbsp;<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<div style=\"height:30px\" aria-hidden=\"true\" class=\"wp-block-spacer\"><\/div>\n\n\n\n<p>Colombia is ranked as one of the<a href=\"https:\/\/www.usefultulips.org\/Latin%20America_Page.html\"> most active Bitcoin trading<\/a> countries in Latin America and has <a href=\"https:\/\/coinmap.org\/view\/#\/world\/4.34641128\/-73.76220703\/6\">hundreds of merchants and ATMs<\/a> providing crypto services. This growth is fueled by a booming yet still developing economy, the breakout of peace, and access to cheap energy. In response to this boom, the Colombian government is implementing regulatory policies designed to ensure that taxpayers using cryptocurrencies pay their dues. In December 2021, Colombia\u2019s Financial Information and Analysis Unit <a href=\"https:\/\/www.hklaw.com\/en\/insights\/publications\/2022\/02\/reporte-de-las-transacciones-con-criptoactivos\">mandated that cryptocurrency<\/a> exchanges were required to report user transactions. Notably, all Bitcoin transactions of over $150 require registration after April 1, 2022. Colombia has also created a <a href=\"https:\/\/www.clubgestionriesgos.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/Cryptocurrency-Regulation-Summary-2022-edition.pdf\">regulatory sandbox<\/a> that enables exchanges to interoperate with banks.&nbsp;&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<div style=\"height:30px\" aria-hidden=\"true\" class=\"wp-block-spacer\"><\/div>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"mexico\">Mexico<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<div style=\"height:30px\" aria-hidden=\"true\" class=\"wp-block-spacer\"><\/div>\n\n\n\n<p>An increasing number of politicians in Mexico are working towards a more crypto-friendly regulatory environment. Driven by the desire to boost the country&#8217;s economy and appeal to their rural, unbanked voters, some politicians have even suggested following El Salvador&#8217;s example by making <a href=\"https:\/\/cointelegraph.com\/news\/making-bitcoin-legal-tender-is-mexico-will-be-an-uphill-battle-says-ricardo-salinas\">Bitcoin legal tender<\/a>. Despite this, the government has specified that <a href=\"https:\/\/commodity.com\/cryptocurrency\/#What_Is_Blockchain\">cryptocurrencies<\/a> are not legal tender at present.\u00a0<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Cryptocurrency exchanges and storage providers are allowed to operate with a permit in Mexico. Acquiring this permit requires companies to provide descriptions of operations and staff roles in addition to know-your-customer (KYC) checks.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Mexico has also declared its intention to create a <a href=\"https:\/\/www.sygna.io\/blog\/why-fed-issued-digital-dollar-cbdc-nearly-made-congress-2-trillion-dollar-stimulus-bill\/\">central bank digital currency (CBDC)<\/a> before <a href=\"https:\/\/finance.yahoo.com\/news\/mexico-plans-issue-cbdc-2024-150725646.html\">2024<\/a>. This progress has been too slow for some. For example, billionaire Ricardo Salinas recently announced his intention to allow Banco Azteca to accept Bitcoin \u2013 only to then have his plans dashed <a href=\"https:\/\/www.cnbc.com\/2021\/06\/28\/mexican-billionaire-salinas-says-he-wants-to-give-his-bank-clients-access-to-bitcoin.html\">by the central government<\/a>.&nbsp;&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<div style=\"height:30px\" aria-hidden=\"true\" class=\"wp-block-spacer\"><\/div>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"argentina\">Argentina&nbsp;<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<div style=\"height:30px\" aria-hidden=\"true\" class=\"wp-block-spacer\"><\/div>\n\n\n\n<p>Argentina is expecting new controls on cryptocurrency in line with IMF measures designed to suppress money laundering. While not signed into formal law, government decree <a href=\"https:\/\/www.argentina.gob.ar\/normativa\/nacional\/decreto-796-2021-356832\">796\/2021<\/a> mandates that exchanges are required to report monthly information on their transactions.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>In addition, on April 27, the nation&#8217;s capital Buenos Aires announced it would start to accept cryptocurrency as payment for taxes. Argentina\u2019s adoption of cryptocurrency has been hastened by a <a href=\"https:\/\/www.wsj.com\/articles\/inflation-got-you-down-at-least-you-dont-live-in-argentina-11650898676\">volatile currency and government mistrust<\/a>. Illustratively, they <a href=\"https:\/\/www.bbc.com\/news\/business-60912789\">earned<\/a> $1.86 billion from cryptocurrency in 2021.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<div style=\"height:30px\" aria-hidden=\"true\" class=\"wp-block-spacer\"><\/div>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"brazil\">Brazil&nbsp;<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<div style=\"height:30px\" aria-hidden=\"true\" class=\"wp-block-spacer\"><\/div>\n\n\n\n<p>On April 27, the Brazilian Senate <a href=\"https:\/\/www.businesstoday.in\/crypto\/story\/brazil-passes-bill-to-regulate-cryptocurrencies-331396-2022-04-27\">passed a bill<\/a> intended to assign regulatory responsibility to the executive branch of the government while removing import charges for ASIC machines. If signed into law by President Bolosnaro, the bill will also put in place punitive measures for entities committing fraud using cryptocurrencies. Thus far, the majority of Brazil\u2019s regulations have been focused on forcing actors in the crypto ecosystem to <a href=\"https:\/\/www.bloomberglinea.com\/2022\/04\/26\/crypto-in-south-america-a-map-of-the-regions-regulatory-landscape\/?outputType=amp&amp;fbclid=IwAR1vRMYV17sOHpxyjeC_kBhwOxJ4HgH4fs20hJKQpxWc0m0h3_8YnOqB4bw\">adhere to Brazil\u2019s anti-money-laundering laws<\/a>. This carrot-and-stick approach may inspire more Brazilians to adopt cryptocurrency. It will also help support several other projects, including the creation of a CBDC.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<div style=\"height:30px\" aria-hidden=\"true\" class=\"wp-block-spacer\"><\/div>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"peru\">Peru<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<div style=\"height:30px\" aria-hidden=\"true\" class=\"wp-block-spacer\"><\/div>\n\n\n\n<p>Peru is taking a slower approach to its adoption of a regulatory framework. It has recently begun debating the creation of a public registry of crypto service providers aimed at reporting what it terms \u201csuspicious operations.\u201d At present, the country has no plans to make Bitcoin legal tender.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<div style=\"height:30px\" aria-hidden=\"true\" class=\"wp-block-spacer\"><\/div>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"el-salvador\">El Salvador&nbsp;<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<div style=\"height:30px\" aria-hidden=\"true\" class=\"wp-block-spacer\"><\/div>\n\n\n\n<p>Despite being the smallest country on this list in terms of both population and geographical scale, El Salvador has been punching above its weight in the crypto ecosystem for some time.

Cryptocurrency presents a solution to several of these problems, but it could also exacerbate them if not properly regulated. While many countries in the region are taking steps in the right direction, the road in front of them is long. Whether crypto ends up as a game-changer or another tool of corruption depends on the actions taken by South American lawmakers over the next few years.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<div style=\"height:30px\" aria-hidden=\"true\" class=\"wp-block-spacer\"><\/div>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/upload.wikimedia.org\/wikipedia\/commons\/thumb\/2\/2b\/Physical_bitcoin_statistic_coin.JPG\/600px-Physical_bitcoin_statistic_coin.JPG\" alt=\"\"\/><figcaption>Source: Wikimedia Commons<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>This article seeks to survey some of the regulations influencing Latin American countries.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":20,"featured_media":7135,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"_acf_changed":false,"footnotes":""},"categories":[26,37],"tags":[121,100,102,103],"class_list":["post-7129","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-news","category-blog-posts","tag-latin-america","tag-crypto","tag-fatf","tag-regulation"],"acf":[],"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO plugin v26.6 -
