Seamus Rocca, CEO of Xapo Bank, stated that although the size of the cryptocurrency economy in Latin America is smaller than in other regions, the adoption of "grassroots users" is growing rapidly, especially in Argentina and Mexico. Xapo Bank aims to achieve capitalization by promoting cross-border transactions and providing secure, efficient cryptocurrency and stablecoin services to help reshape the region's financial operations.
Rocca stated that in Argentina, the national currency is rapidly depreciating in the face of a high inflation rate of 150%, making stablecoins like USDC increasingly important as people look for alternatives to the peso. Xapo Bank offers one-to-one USDC exchange for dollars and supports USDC transfers, allowing members to bypass the SWIFT payment system.
