Central Bank Of Argentina Bans Banks From Offering Bitcoin, Dịch vụ tiền điện tử

The ban comes just a few days after Argentina’s largest private bank announced it would start offering bitcoin cho khách hàng

The central bank of Argentina has banned financial institutions from offering any services involving cryptocurrencies like bitcoin. The ban comes days after the largest private bank in Argentina announced it would begin offering such services to its clients. An alert released from the central bank last year showed its reluctance to cryptocurrencies, also exhibited in today’s ban.

The Central Bank of the Argentine Republic (BCRA) announced in a Thursday tuyên bố that financial institutions in the country are banned from offering clients any services involving Bitcoin hoặc các loại tiền điện tử khác.

The news comes on the heels of a $45 billion loan approval from the International Monetary Fund (IMF) for Argentina Tháng Ba that stipulated the country should discourage the usage of bitcoin và tiền điện tử.

The largest private bank in Argentina days ago công bố they would begin offering these very same products. Burbank, a digital bank in the country, also công bố it would offer a line of support for bitcoin Và các bí mật khác.

The shock of this decision from centralized authorities directly refutes the actions of many Argentinians as the country is reportedly ranked tenth in the world for cryptocurrency adoption, according to a report from chain analytics company Phân tích.

The ongoing adoption of bitcoin and other cryptocurrencies within Argentina is largely attributed to the towering rates of inflation suffered by citizens. Reuters reported that the inflation data provided by the government last month showed annual inflation rates of 55% for the month. The report also states experts are anticipating 60% inflation for the year, which is set to take a toll on the almost 40% of the population reportedly living below poverty.

BCRA released an cảnh báo last year concerning the use of cryptocurrencies and the risks it saw associated with participating in the asset class, including high volatility, money laundering, financing of terrorism and potential non-compliance with foreign exchange regulations.
