Amerika Latin (LATAM) melihat volume crypto lebih dari $730 miliar pada tahun 2025, lonjakan 60% tahun-ke-tahun yang membuat wilayah tersebut bertanggung jawab atas sekitar 10% dari aktivitas kripto global.
Pada tahun 2026, pemain institusional mulai menganggap serius kawasan ini, regulasi mengkristal, dan pendorong struktural dari 2025 tidak menunjukkan tanda-tanda memudar. Tetapi wilayah ini bukan cerita tunggal, dan 2026 akan menguji apakah momentum saat ini dibangun di atas fundamental yang solid atau optimisme spekulatif.
Fakta singkat
- Pengguna crypto aktif bulanan LATAM tumbuh 18% tahun-ke-tahun (YoY), tiga kali lebih cepat daripada AS.
- Argentina mencapai 12% penetrasi pengguna aktif bulanan, menyumbang lebih dari seperempat aktivitas kripto di kawasan itu.
- Lebih dari 90% arus kripto Brasil sekarang terkait stablecoin.
- Tiga negara LATAM berada di peringkat 20 besar global: Brasil (ke-5), Venezuela (ke-18), Argentina (ke-20).
- Unduhan aplikasi kripto Peru tumbuh 50% pada tahun 2025, dengan 2,9 juta unduhan.
Dari alat kelangsungan hidup hingga infrastruktur keuangan
Amerika Latin tidak merangkul cryptocurrency karena spekulasi. Ia memeluknya karena sistem keuangan tradisional berulang kali mengecewakan orang biasa. Selama 15 tahun terakhir, inflasi tahunan rata-rata di lima ekonomi terbesar di kawasan itu mencapai 13%, dibandingkan dengan hanya 2,3% di AS selama periode yang sama.
Di Venezuela, mencapai 65.000% dalam satu tahun. Di Argentina, itu melebihi 220% pada tahun 2024. Bagi jutaan orang, menyimpan tabungan dalam mata uang lokal adalah tindakan penghancuran diri yang lambat. Stablecoin menjadi respons alami. Aset digital yang dipatok ke dolar AS menawarkan penyimpanan nilai yang andal, transferabilitas tanpa batas, dan akses tanpa rekening bank.
Tidak seperti di Barat, di mana crypto dilihat lebih sebagai instrumen spekulatif, di LATAM itu telah menjadi alat keuangan yang diperlukan. Namun, penggerak adopsi tidak sepenuhnya seragam di seluruh wilayah. Brasil dan Meksiko adalah cerita institusional, didorong oleh partisipasi pasar yang diatur dan pemain keuangan mapan.
Argentina dan Venezuela tetap menjadi permainan penyimpan nilai, dengan crypto berfungsi sebagai lindung nilai langsung terhadap keruntuhan fiat. Dan Peru dan Kolombia adalah pasar yang lebih mencari hasil, di mana crypto menawarkan pengembalian yang tidak dapat ditandingi oleh rekening tabungan tradisional.
Seberapa cepat LATAM mengadopsi crypto?
Volume crypto on-chain LATAM naik 60% tahun-ke-tahun pada tahun 2025. Wilayah ini telah mencatat hampir $1.5 triliun dalam volume kumulatif sejak pertengahan 2022, memuncak pada rekor $87.7 miliar dalam satu bulan pada Desember 2024.
Pengguna crypto aktif bulanan di seluruh LATAM juga tumbuh 18% pada tahun 2025, tiga kali lebih cepat daripada AS.
Stablecoin adalah kendaraan utama yang mendorong adopsi ini. Dari $730 miliar yang diterima pada tahun 2025, $324 miliar bergerak melalui transaksi stablecoin, lonjakan 89% tahun-ke-tahun. Di Brasil, lebih dari 90% dari semua arus kripto terkait stablecoin, dan di Argentina, stablecoin menyumbang lebih dari 60% aktivitas.
Ke depan, pasar cryptocurrency Amerika Latin diperkirakan akan mencapai $442.6 miliar pada tahun 2033, tumbuh pada tingkat tahunan gabungan 10.93% dari 2025, menurut IMARC Group.
Bagi para pedagang, kecepatan adopsi kurang penting sebagai berita utama daripada apa yang mendorongnya: wilayah 650 juta orang membangun infrastruktur keuangan paralel secara real time, dengan stablecoin sebagai fondasinya.
Pergantian kelembagaan
Untuk sebagian besar sejarah crypto LATAM, adopsi dilakukan dari bawah ke atas. Pengguna ritel yang tidak memiliki rekening bank atau kekurangan bank mendorong volume melalui bursa lokal. Gambaran itu sekarang berubah di ujung atas pasar.
Pada Februari 2026, Crypto Finance Group, bagian dari operator pertukaran global terkemuka Deutsche Börse Group, mengumumkan ekspansinya ke Amerika Latin, menargetkan bank, manajer aset, dan perantara keuangan yang mencari infrastruktur penyimpanan dan perdagangan tingkat lembaga.
Bank tradisional dan fintech mengikutinya. Nubank sekarang memberi penghargaan kepada pelanggan karena memegang USDC. Bursa B3 Brasil menyetujui XRP dan SOL ETF spot pertama di dunia, di depan AS, pada tahun 2025. Pertukaran terpusat, termasuk Mercado Bitcoin, NovaDAX, dan Binance, secara kolektif telah mendaftarkan lebih dari 200 pasangan perdagangan berdenominasi BRL baru sejak awal 2024.
Pada Maret 2025, fintech Brasil Meliuz menjadi perusahaan publik pertama di negara itu yang meluncurkan strategi akumulasi Bitcoin, sekarang memegang 320 BTC.
“Adopsi Crypto di LATAM sudah berskala global. Apa yang dibutuhkan pasar sekarang adalah tata kelola tingkat institusi, dan itulah mengapa kami ada di sini,” — Stijn Vander Straeten, CEO Crypto Finance Group
Kasus penggunaan pengiriman uang kripto
Amerika Latin menerima ratusan miliar dolar setiap tahun dari pekerja di luar negeri, menjadikan pengiriman uang salah satu kasus penggunaan kripto yang paling konkret dan terukur di wilayah ini. Layanan transfer tradisional mengenakan biaya rata-rata 6,2% per transaksi. Pada transfer US$300, itu kira-kira US $20 dalam biaya.
Infrastruktur berbasis blockchain secara lebih luas menawarkan pengurangan biaya yang dramatis. Bitcoin membawa biaya sekitar US $3,12 per US $100 yang ditransfer. Sementara alternatif yang lebih murah seperti infrastruktur XRP atau Ethereum layer-2 dapat menguranginya menjadi kurang dari US $0,01.
Bagi seorang pekerja migran yang mengirim pulang $1.500 ke Peru, beralih dari bank lama menghemat lebih dari upah mingguan rata-rata Peru dalam biaya saja.
Lingkungan peraturan kripto LATAM
Variabel yang paling menentukan apakah LATAM memenuhi potensi 2026-nya adalah regulasi crypto. Dan di sini, gambarnya benar-benar bercampur.
Brasil memimpin wilayah dengan Undang-Undang Aset Virtual, yang mencakup pemisahan aset, lisensi VASP, persyaratan AML/KYC, dan standar modal. Ini juga menerapkan Aturan Perjalanan untuk transfer VASP domestik, yang mulai berlaku pada Februari 2026. Namun, beberapa proposal yang lebih kontroversial, termasuk batas US $100.000 pada transaksi stablecoin lintas batas dan larangan transfer dompet self-custodia, tetap berada di bawah konsultasi aktif.
Undang-Undang Fintech 2018 Meksiko tetap menjadi salah satu pengakuan formal paling awal di dunia atas aset virtual. Undang-Undang Fintech 2023 Chili menetapkan lisensi untuk bursa, dompet, dan penerbit stablecoin, secara resmi mengakui aset digital sebagai 'uang digital'.
Bolivia membalikkan larangan kripto selama satu dekade pada Juni 2024 dengan mengotorisasi transaksi aset digital yang diatur. Argentina memperkenalkan pendaftaran pertukaran wajib pada tahun 2025. Dan El Salvador terus memperluas inisiatif ekonomi token meskipun menghapus status tender legal Bitcoin.
Sepuluh negara di seluruh wilayah sekarang memiliki semacam kerangka kerja kripto formal. Tetapi bagi para pedagang, divergensi peraturan tetap menjadi risiko nyata, dan mengingat Brasil menerima hampir sepertiga dari semua volume kripto LATAM, setiap pembalikan kebijakan yang signifikan di sana dapat memiliki konsekuensi yang sangat besar.
Apa yang harus diperhatikan pedagang
Momentum kelembagaan Brasil adalah tren struktural yang paling signifikan. Dengan volume on-chain $318.8 miliar pada tahun 2025, Brasil secara efektif adalah pasar LATAM.
Hasil konsultasi stablecoin Brasil dapat memiliki pengaruh besar. Pembatasan stablecoin asing dalam pembayaran domestik akan secara langsung berdampak pada kelas aset yang paling banyak diperdagangkan di pasar dominan kawasan itu.
Argentina adalah permainan volatilitas. Penetrasi pengguna aktif bulanan sebesar 12% dan 5.4 juta unduhan aplikasi crypto pada tahun 2025 menandakan keterlibatan ritel yang mendalam dan berkembang.
Kolombia adalah pasar peringatan dini yang harus diperhatikan. Depresiasi peso 5,3% pada tahun 2025 dan krisis fiskal yang semakin dalam mendorong arus masuk stablecoin dalam pola yang mencerminkan lintasan Argentina di tahun-tahun sebelumnya. Jika situasi makro Kolombia semakin memburuk, adopsi crypto dapat dipercepat.
Ada juga risiko konsentrasi pertukaran yang dimainkan. Pertukaran kripto Binance adalah pertukaran utama untuk lebih dari 50% pengguna kripto LATAM. Jika bursa menghadapi tindakan regulasi, gangguan operasional, atau guncangan kompetitif, itu dapat memiliki dampak pasar yang sangat besar.
Intinya
Pasar crypto Amerika Latin telah memasuki fase baru. Penggerak struktural yang menyebabkan permintaan crypto awal di kawasan ini belum hilang: inflasi, pengiriman uang, pengecualian keuangan, dan ketidakstabilan mata uang semuanya masih berperan.
Apa yang telah berubah adalah lapisan yang dibangun di atasnya. Infrastruktur kelembagaan, kerangka peraturan, adopsi perbendaharaan perusahaan, dan modal pertukaran global mengalir ke wilayah yang, sampai saat ini, sebagian besar mandiri.
Pertumbuhan volume Brasil mendekati -250% pada tahun 2025 dan posisinya menerima hampir sepertiga dari semua kripto LATAM adalah perkembangan pasar yang menentukan. Lintasan peraturannya, keputusan kebijakan stablecoin, dan jalur ETF akan secara efektif mengatur nada untuk wilayah tersebut pada tahun 2026.
Bagi pedagang, angka pertumbuhan utama adalah nyata, tetapi begitu juga risiko konsentrasi, ketidakpastian peraturan, dan divergensi tingkat negara yang berada di bawahnya.

The Kansas City Federal Reserve is set to host the 45 th Annual Symposium at Jackson Hole Lodge in Wyoming’s Grand Teton National Park. Some of the countries and world’s most important central bankers, economists, and academics will be meeting to discuss the biggest issues facing the global economy. The key issue on the agenda is of “Reassessing Constraints on the Economy and Policy.” All eyes will be on Jerome Powell, with the chairman of the Federal Reserve expected to speak on Thursday and provide an update on the proceedings of the conference.
At last year’s event Powell was caught out after stating that inflation was transitory, only to see it become a huge long-lasting issue. Therefore, he may try and correct this perception and portray a much more conservative attitude. There is also a view from some analysts that the Fed came across too dovish in the July meeting which led to the market rally.
At this stage the market has priced in a 75-bps increase at the September meeting, however this may change. With key inflation measures slowing somewhat, the question will be whether the fed continue its aggressive interest rate hikes or eases their policy to avoid a potential recession. The market will be hoping that Powell provides some clues for what the Fed plans to do after rates peak.
They will be hoping for clarity over whether the bank will hold the rates at the high levels for some time or lower them straight away to avoid a recession. Market participants should be weary that although Jackson Hole may provide some important context to the future rates, no official policies will be set. The conference will most likely have a relatively small impact on the market, it still has the potential to provide some volatility for both equities and currency if significant attitude shifts are expressed.
The USD is currently at 5 year highs and with some positive catalysts for the currency, it may continue to rise further if the Fed continues to be aggressive in its rate hikes.

The recent price action of the Bitcoin suggests that the leading cryptocurrency may be ready for another sell off. Since last November when the currency peaked it has seen a sharp decline with retracements along the way. With inflation and recessionary pressures prevalent short-term volatility remains high as the market determines how to price the asset.
The Jackson Hole symposium is set to begin on Thursday in the USA and may effect the price in the short term if bullish or bearish sentiment comes from the event. The Chart The long-term outlook for Bitcoin is bearish. With constant sell downs and both the 50 Day and 200 day moving average both firmly pushing towards the downside.
Furthermore, the price has not been able to sustain any significant rally and has broken through its major support at $30,000 USD. Recent Price Action The concern for BTC is that it has sold out of the channel that it had been consolidating in and has therefore rejected the upward move. Similarly, the price has followed this action, twice before with both resulting in sell offs.
These patterns appear as traps for bulls because, buyers begin to feel FOMO and then enter long only to be ‘fake out’ as sellers soak up the buying volume and then continue to push the price back down. The RSI also supports more selling as it currently sits at 38 whilst the prior sell offs reached below 20. The RSI also looks to have made a triple top as shown in the chart further indicating that sellers may be ready to drive the price down further.
The concern for buyers is that this current sell off may not be finished. The 5-hour pattern looks to be forming a bear flag/pennant. If the price can break below it may fall to the next support at $17,000/18,000 USD.
This pattern is to be expected and is just reflective of sellers taking a breath before they continue to push the price lower. The price has also fallen back below the 50-period moving average indicting short term bearish sentiment. If the short-term target of $ 17,000/18,000 USD cannot hold the next target is the $13,500 USD level.
Iron ore prices have continued to rally to a six-month high this week, due in part to reports of potential easing of China’s strict COVID-19 policy and their signs of improved steel demand. The Singapore Exchange has the iron ore futures price reaching $165 USD a tonne on Tuesday, this is the highest level since July 2021. The price increase could have been attributed to a report that concluded that Beijing was considering potentially moving away from a zero-tolerance approach to COVID-19.
If this occurs, it could potentially put an end to the stop-start nature of China’s economic activities which has been happening since the start of COVID-19 pandemic. Another report indicated that experimental opening measures could arrive in a few select cities across China as early as June, which will coincide with the beginning of their Summer. A potential sign that China’s stimulus is contributing to rebound in growth can be evident earlier this month with the release of China’s Manufacturing Purchasing Managers Index (PMI).
The PMI had increased to 50.2, which was greater than the economists’ consensus of 49.8. Some experts and economists believe that the PMI’s figures released next month of March will likely provide a better indication of the true state of China’s economy, given the effects of the Lunar New Year period in the first two months of the year. Iron ore supplies could also heavily affect its global price.
There are concerns about the supply disruptions caused by the conflict between Russia and Ukraine, given their iron ore sector accounts for 100 million tonnes and 81 million tonnes a year, respectively. Heavy rain in the south-east of Brazil earlier this year, linked to the La Nina weather pattern, has forced producers to cease operations. Brazil is the second largest iron ore producer behind Australia, producing almost 400 million tonnes compared to Australia’s 900 million tonnes.
The increase in price to iron ore and energy has driven the AUD/USD to reach a new four month high of 74.41 US cents. Commonwealth Bank (CBA) believes that the currency is currently on track to end the first quarter near 74 US cents. They have updated the fair value estimate of the Australian dollar following the release of the RBA’s commodity price index for February.
CBA’s fair value for the AUD/USD ranges between 78-90 US cents, centred on 84 US cents. All in all, the AUD/USD has a healthy positive correlation with the price of iron ore due Australia being the largest producer. Investors can research the supply and demand of iron ore to achieve a good potential indication of the strength of the AUD/USD.
