Crypto Platforms in Argentina Face Tougher Regulations by 2025

Argentina has strengthened its regulatory framework for VASPs to combat financial crimes and enhance transparency in the crypto sector. The CNV has implemented a key rule requiring the separation of customer funds from exchange funds, with the aim of preventing a repeat of the FTX collapse and providing better protection for investors.  These new regulations are aligned with international anti-money laundering standards, and they require VASPs to register with the authorities and implement more strict compliance measures. The new law will officially take effect on December 31, 2025, allowing VASPs time to adapt. Argentina’s message is clear—crypto platforms must play by the rules or face the consequences.
