  • Bitget is now registered in Argentina as a Virtual Asset Service Provider (PSAV) under the National Securities Commission (CNV) PSAV registry. 
  • Bitget regards the registration as a step forward to serving Argentina’s growing user base.
  • The exchange sees a route to expanding into global markets while it consolidates its influence across Latin America.

Bitget, the world’s largest Universal Exchange (UEX), has successfully completed registration in Argentina as a Virtual Asset Service Provider (PSAV) under the National Securities Commission (CNV) PSAV registry. 

The registration marks another step in Bitget’s expansion across Latin America, where the company continues strengthening its regulatory positioning across key markets. Argentina joins a growing list of markets where Bitget has local registrations and compliance efforts as part of its broader expansion strategy. 

The registration supports compliance and AML/CFT oversight requirements as an obligated entity before Argentina’s Financial Information Unit (UIF) and other competent authorities. The registration also places Bitget within Argentina’s current framework for virtual asset service providers as regulatory oversight of the sector continues evolving across the country. 

Bitget rolls over Argentina license to broader LATAM expansion

Argentina has become an important market for digital asset platforms as crypto adoption driven by a growing interest in alternative financial infrastructure and access to global markets, continues to increase across the country and wider Latin America. 

Recent industry reports estimate that Argentina ranks among the region’s most active crypto markets by user participation and platform activity. For Bitget, Argentina represents part of the company’s broader regional expansion strategy as regulatory developments and user demand continue evolving across major markets in the region. 

“Regulatory frameworks for digital assets continue developing across Latin America, making compliance and registration increasingly important for platforms operating in the region,” said Gracy Chen, CEO at Bitget. “Argentina represents an important market within Latin America’s broader digital asset landscape, and Bitget remains focused on supporting sustainable growth by aligning with local regulatory requirements.”

The registration places Bitget in a stronger position to serve Argentina’s growing user base within the country’s current framework for virtual asset service providers. Argentina ranks among Latin America’s most active crypto markets, with nearly 20% of the population now using digital assets and 15,000+ businesses accepting crypto payments. 

User activity and platform adoption continue to climb as digital assets become a bigger part of everyday financial life. For Bitget, the registration supports a longer-term presence in a market that continues seeing strong growth.

The expansion into Argentina follows Bitget’s recent regulatory progress in other international markets, including Mexico, as the company continues growing in regions where regulatory development and digital asset adoption are advancing simultaneously.
