Digital asset platform Nexo officially launches in Argentina to offer high-yield savings and cryptocurrency-backed credit following the acquisition of Buenbit.
Global digital asset asset platform Nexo has established a regional hub in Buenos Aires on March 5, 2026. The expansion introduces a digital dollar savings alternative, allowing local users to earn up to 13% annual interest on stablecoins such as USDT and USDC.
The platform will also debut cryptocurrency-backed credits in the Argentine market, allowing Bitcoin and Ethereum holders to access liquidity without having to sell their positions. These services outperform traditional local products such as term deposits and mutual funds, which typically yield returns of 0.5% to 8% per year.
“Today, technology allows people to save, earn yield and access liquidity in foreign currencies, complementing traditional financial alternatives,” said Federico Org, Buenbit CEO at Nexo.
