Mercado Bitcoin to Issue $200 Million in Tokenized Assets on Stellar Network
Latin America's leading digital asset platform, Mercado Bitcoin, is set to launch $200 million worth of tokenized financial instruments on the stellar blockchain. The offering includes fixed-income and equity products, marking a significant stride in bridging traditional finance with blockchain technology in the region.
Stellar's infrastructure, known for its efficiency in asset tokenization, was strategically chosen to expand access to global markets. With 4 million clients, Mercado Bitcoin aims to capitalize on Latin America's burgeoning crypto sector, projected to hit $442 billion by 2033.
The move underscores growing institutional interest in real-world asset (RWA) tokenization, positioning Stellar as a key player in financial digitization. Investors gain exposure to regulated instruments while blockchain adoption extends beyond speculative crypto trading.
