Argentina’s central bank is reportedly considering whether to allow traditional financial institutions to offer crypto services, marking a potential reversal of a ban.
Argentina is considering allowing local financial institutions to engage more directly with cryptocurrencies in a move that would mark a significant shift from its restrictive stance, according to local media report.
According to a Friday report by local news outlet La Nacion, Banco Central de la República Argentina (BCRA), Argentina’s central bank, is considering allowing traditional banks to trade cryptocurrencies. The story cited “sources close to the organization.” Cointelegraph has not independently verified those claims.
The BCRA stepped in to ban financial institutions from offering crypto trading just days after two of the country’s largest banks signaled they were opening up to digital assets in May 2022. The BCRA said that such initiatives posed risks to users and “to the financial system as a whole.”
