Binance has achieved a significant milestone by gaining registration in Argentina’s Virtual Asset Service Providers Registry. This marks the company’s 20th regulatory approval worldwide, reinforcing its commitment to global compliance.
The registration, overseen by Argentina’s National Securities Commission (CNV), allows Binance to offer its full range of services to Argentine users. This development is particularly noteworthy given Argentina’s economic climate, where cryptocurrencies have gained popularity as an alternative to the volatile national currency.
Binance’s compliance program in Argentina focuses on anti-money laundering and counter-terrorism financing measures, alongside strict identity verification processes. The exchange also maintains a dedicated unit to combat financial crime in collaboration with law enforcement agencies.
Guilherme Nazar, Binance’s head of Latin America, emphasized the importance of the Argentine market and the company’s commitment to working with local authorities to ensure sustainable industry development.
This achievement follows Binance’s recent regulatory successes in other countries, including India, Kazakhstan, and Indonesia. It reflects a growing trend in the cryptocurrency industry towards increased regulation and compliance.
The move is expected to enhance cryptocurrency services in Argentina, potentially leading to increased investment and greater confidence in the digital asset market within the country. It also underscores the evolving landscape of cryptocurrency regulation worldwide, as major players like Binance continue to work towards legitimacy and mainstream acceptance.
