Ripio, Argentina's longest-running crypto exchange, is doubling down on local currency stablecoins and tokenized bonds despite anticipating a sluggish 2026 for broader crypto markets. CEO Sebastián Serrano sees Latin America's tokenized money sector poised for explosive growth.

The Buenos Aires-based firm has evolved from retail trading to blockchain infrastructure, now serving banks, fintechs, and e-commerce giants like Mercado Libre. Its stablecoin arsenal includes peso-pegged wARS, Brazil's wBRL, Mexico's wMXN, and dollar-backed UXD—all live on Ethereum, Base, and World Chain networks.

These local-currency tokens eliminate foreign exchange friction for regional users, offering direct fiat onramps without USD conversion costs. Beyond stablecoins, Ripio is tokenizing real-world assets including Argentine bonds, bridging traditional finance with blockchain efficiency.
