The post Crypto Regulations in Argentina 2025 appeared first on Coinpedia Fintech News In Argentina, cryptocurrency is treated as a form of digital asset, allowing trading, storage, and usage without major restrictions. To ensure the safe and secure use of crypto, the Argentine federal government has implemented important regulations governing its use, including a VASP license, registration, and strict compliance with AMK and CFT. In 2025, Argentina is actively implementing a regulatory framework for crypto to enhance oversight and align with global standards. Major Crypto Regulations in Argentina 2025 April 14, 2025 – Cepo Cambiario The Argentine government lifted most currency controls, also known as “ cepo cambiario ”, allowing individuals to buy US dollars without restrictions. This deregulation extended to transactions involving cryptocurrency, expanding liberalization of foreign exchange. March 14, 2025- Resolution 1058/2025 The rule was issued by the National Securities Commission (CNV) to establish a mandatory registration system for virtual asset service providers (VASPs). It also seeks to align Argentina with global anti-money laundering (AML) and counter-terrorist financing (CFT) standards recommended by the Financial Action Task Force (FATF). The full regulatory framework will take effect on December 31, 2025. The deadline for registration of entities is as follows: Individuals– before July 1, 2025; Legal bodies in Argentina– before August 1, 2025; Foreign legal entities– before September 1, 2025. Timeline of crypto regulations: Date Law/ Regulations Details July 18, 2024 Decree 640/2024 Legal framework for the tokenization of goods March 25, 2024 CNV resolution 994/2024 Mandatory VASP registration with CNV March 25, 2024 UIF Resolution 49/2024 VASPs as UIF reporting entities, AML/CFT obligations March 14, 2024 Law 27,739 VASP registration, AML/CFT, phased compliance deadline December 20, 2023 Decree 70/2023 Legal validity of crypto contracts reaffirmed May 4, 2023 Central bank ban Banks decline to offer crypto services What is the Argentine Government Saying About Crypto? In 2025, the Argentine government took a progressive stance towards cryptocurrency, recognizing it as a digital asset. President Javier Milei’s administration has fostered this environment by initiating new legislation to encourage the growth of the cryptocurrency sector. The government’s key focus is: Allowing regulated use in transactions and contracts of crypto Ensure security and consumer protection within the crypto market Promotion of crypto adoption and investment in digital assets as part of the broader economy. Crypto Tax in Argentina 2025 Important note: Crypto is an intangible property, so holding crypto is not taxed, but profits or income from transactions are taxable, aligning with fiscal modernization efforts. Tax reporting: The Financial year runs from January 1 to December 31, and tax returns are due by June 30 of the following year. Crypto tax can be reported through AFIP’s online tax portal. Tax type Tax rate Tax applicability Capital gains tax (CGT) 15% Profits from selling/ exchanging crypto Income tax 5% to 35% Earnings from mining, staking, and payments Personal property tax 0.25%- 1.25% Year-end value of crypto holdings VAT 21% Crypto is used to buy goods and services International transfers 5% -15% Cross-border crypto transactions. Crypto License in Argentina There are no specific licenses in Argentina for crypto businesses; only the Virtual Asset Service Provider (VASP) registration is required to operate. The Resolution General 994/2024 defined the VASP, while Ley 277739 specified the regulatory (CNV) and functions of VASPs. All crypto companies must register if their transaction volume exceeds 35,000 UVA (approx $29,246). Exemptions for monthly volume below this threshold are also available. Penalty: Failure to register can result in the disqualification of the crypto platform and cease it from operating. Under Ley 27739, the VASP can engage in: Exchange of virtual assets for fiat currencies. Exchange of one virtual asset for another. Transfer of virtual assets. Custody and management of virtual assets. Financial services related to virtual assets offerings and sales. Crypto Adoption In Argentina User penetration rate: The crypto user penetration is expected to be 22.80% in 2025 and is projected to increase to 23.80% by 2026. The number of users in the crypto market is expected to reach 10.95 million by next year. Crypto revenue: The current projected crypto revenue is estimated to reach US$940.9 million in 2025. As the crypto market is growing rapidly in the region, the estimation for 2026 is growing at a rate of 16.02%, depicting US$1.1 billion crypto revenue by 2026. Crypto holdings: The Argentine government has not disclosed its crypto holdings yet; policies are prioritizing creating a framework for crypto regulations to protect investors and consumers. Conclusion Argentina’s recent policies and the government’s active efforts in the crypto space have promised further exploration of blockchain tokenization and open finance. The country is fully supporting high fintech adoption to balance security with modernization. The primary goal of the government is to establish a better digital framework to boost the economy with cryptocurrency and other digital assets. .article_register_shortcode { padding: 18px 24px; border-radius: 8px; display: flex; align-items: center; margin: 6px 0 22px; border: 1px solid #0052CC4D; background: linear-gradient(90deg, rgba(255, 255, 255, 0.1) 0%, rgba(0, 82, 204, 0.1) 100%); } .article_register_shortcode .media-body h5 { color: #000000; font-weight: 600; font-size: 20px; line-height: 22px; text-align:left; } .article_register_shortcode .media-body h5 span { color: #0052CC; } .article_register_shortcode .media-body p { font-weight: 400; font-size: 14px; line-height: 22px; color: #171717B2; margin-top: 4px; text-align:left; } .article_register_shortcode .media-body{ padding-right: 14px; } .article_register_shortcode .media-button a { float: right; } .article_register_shortcode .primary-button img{ vertical-align: middle; width: 20px; margin: 0; display: inline-block; } @media (min-width: 581px) and (max-width: 991px) { .article_register_shortcode .media-body p { margin-bottom: 0; } } @media (max-width: 580px) { .article_register_shortcode { display: block; padding: 20px; } .article_register_shortcode img { max-width: 50px; } .article_register_shortcode .media-body h5 { font-size: 16px; } .article_register_shortcode .media-body { margin-left: 0px; } .article_register_shortcode .media-body p { font-size: 13px; line-height: 20px; margin-top: 6px; margin-bottom: 14px; } .article_register_shortcode .media-button a { float: unset; } .article_register_shortcode .secondary-button { margin-bottom: 0; } } Never Miss a Beat in the Crypto World!

A single-word reply on X from Rep. Anna Paulina Luna (R‑FL) — “Confirmed” — rocketed through the crypto markets early Wednesday, convincing a growing chorus of traders that Federal Reserve Chair Jerome Powell’s tenure is measured in days, not months. Within minutes of Luna’s affirmation that “Jerome Powell is going to be fired. Firing is imminent,” prediction‑market odds of his ouster on Polymarket leapt to 26 percent, the highest reading this year, up from 16 percent only 24 hours earlier. A White‑House‑backed search is already under way. Treasury Secretary Scott Bessent, in an on‑record Bloomberg interview, acknowledged “a formal process that’s already starting” to identify Powell’s successor, adding that “there are a lot of good candidates inside and outside the Federal Reserve.” Related Reading: ‘Crypto Week’ Takes A Hit: US House Fails To Advance Key Acts President Donald Trump underscored the point during an impromptu press gaggle, repeating last week’s warning that “the renovations at the central bank were a fireable offense.” Those renovations — an over‑budget, $2.5 billion overhaul of the Fed’s historic Eccles Building — have become the legal pretext for dismissal, with Trump allies alleging “inefficiency” and “neglect of duty,” two of the three causes for removal spelled out in the Federal Reserve Act. Powell has asked the Fed’s inspector general to reopen its review of the project. Notably, Bill Pulte, the Federal Housing Finance Agency head and a longtime Powell critic, confirmed the rumors to his followers on X: “I heard from a very credible, bipartisan source, today, that Jerome Powell is considering resigning. This maps with both reports and also the talk in DC.” Crypto Markets Sense A Massive Bull Run The Bitcoin and crypto prices haven’t shown any reaction to the rumor yet. After piercing $123,000 on Monday, BTC is still 4.5 percent below the record high. The entire crypto market seems to be in a wait-and-see position. However, long-term, the implication could be profound for the crypto markets. “I cannot think of a more bullish catalyst for Bitcoin in the past five years than the complete and utter humiliation of Jerome Powell,” wrote macro commentator Julian Figueroa, pointing to what he called the “façade” of central‑bank independence collapsing in real time. Related Reading: Happy Ending: Crypto Hacker Returns Funds From $42 Million GMX Exploit Long‑time trader Byzantine General echoed the ambivalence: “Powell was actually a great Fed chair. But… if he resigns then it’s very likely that whoever comes next will lower rates, which is bullish for our cryptographic currencies.” Should President Trump succeed in replacing Powell with a more accommodating successor—one prepared to deliver the “three‑percentage‑point” rate cut he has publicly demanded—the Federal Reserve would likely be forced to shelve its balance‑sheet runoff precisely as Washington ramps up fresh fiscal stimulus. That synchronous pivot away from quantitative tightening would flip the liquidity regime from drain to deluge, recreating the macro backdrop that powered the crypto market’s 2020‑21 vertical ascent and positioning it for the next major bull run. At press time, the total crypto market cap stood at $3.68 trillion. Featured image created with DALL.E, chart from TradingView.com

“Institutional capital can no longer ignore the returns that Bitcoin is providing,” reported the Kobeissi Letter on Tuesday. The cryptocurrency cannot be ignored because it has yielded a 90% compound annual growth rate (CAGR) over the past 13 years, which no other asset can match. Even “conservative” funds are allocating 1% of their assets under management to Bitcoin as treasury trend momentum builds, they observed. Massive Institutional Inflows Currently, there is an estimated $31 trillion in institutional AUM in the United States, Kobeissi stated. “If just 1% of US institutional capital flows into Bitcoin, this could drive another $300 billion into the asset,” they said. A further $300 billion added to Bitcoin’s $2.34 trillion market capitalization would drive prices up around 13% which would put the asset at $133,000. This figure has been widely predicted by analysts as a short-term target. “Factor in global institutional AUM, and we could see $1 trillion+ flow into Bitcoin,” they said. Another $1 trillion added to the BTC market cap would drive prices up by 70%, which would put it closer to $200,000. “Bitcoin has simply become too big to ignore.” Bitcoin’s next catalyst has arrived: Simply put, institutional capital can no longer ignore the returns that Bitcoin is providing. When an asset provides a return of 90% in one year, it can be ruled an “outlier.” However, when an asset provides a 90% CAGR for 13 years… — The Kobeissi Letter (@KobeissiLetter) July 15, 2025 All this is hypothetically achievable without any retail participation in markets. Institutions are already driving the current market rally. BlackRock , for example, has hoovered up a whopping 717,388 BTC, or 3.6% of the entire circulating supply. Meanwhile, Strategy has accumulated 601,550 BTC, 3% of the circulating supply. These two entities alone hold a whopping 6.6% of the entire Bitcoin supply, currently valued at $155 billion. As more institutional Bitcoin funds are launched, and more corporations and nation states stack the asset for their treasuries, the price can only go one way in the long term. BTC Price Outlook Bitcoin is still cooling from its July 14 all-time high and remains down 4.3% from that level. The asset was trading flat on the day at $117,850 at the time of writing, holding around support levels. It is possible that consolidation could continue for some time before the next leg up into the $130,000 range. The retreat has been caused by long-term holders taking profit , not institutions liquidating their stashes. Glassnode reported that this week saw “one of the largest BTC profit realization days this year, driven mostly by long-term holders.” The post How Bitcoin Could Hit $200K on Global Institutional Inflows Alone appeared first on CryptoPotato .

Bitcoin (BTC) made a major push at the beginning of the week, surpassing $123,000 and breaking a new record. While this rise had limited impact on altcoins, Ethereum (ETH) and other altcoins began to surge as profit-taking began in BTC. Ethereum Goes on the Attack! At this point, Ethereum reclaimed the $3,000 level for the first time since February 1st and reached a 5-month high of $3,150. Analytics firm Swissblock said that one of the key drivers behind Ethereum's rise is the capital rotation from Bitcoin. Analysts noted that Bitcoin's previous four bullish waves this year lasted between 15 and 30 days. They noted that the current rally has reached its 12th day, and that profit-taking may begin in BTC after that. They also noted that capital flowing out of BTC could flow into altcoins, particularly ETH, which could further boost ETH. Analysts also noted that the ETH/BTC ratio broke upwards for the first time since May, signaling a trend reversal. They noted that ETH/BTC had broken above its 200-day moving average for the first time in a year, indicating medium- to long-term upward momentum for ETH. Bullish Predictions for Ethereum Are Increasing! Pseudonymous crypto analyst Merlijn The Trader also argued that Ethereum could experience an unprecedented rally. Accordingly, the analyst claimed that ETH could follow a trajectory similar to Bitcoin's 2018-2021 market cycle. If Ethereum follows BTC's 2018-2021 cycle, it could experience a 1,100% rally. He noted that ETH's current price movements mirror those of BTC between 2028 and 2021, particularly the rates of increase and correction being identical. According to the analyst, ETH could experience the same 1,100% increase as BTC from now on. This means Ethereum could potentially rally to around $18,205. While the analyst's chart suggests a significant rally is imminent for Ethereum, it alone isn't enough to trigger a surge. Don't base your investment decisions on a single piece of data or analysis.

U.S. spot bitcoin exchange-traded funds (ETFs) extended their winning streak to nine consecutive days on Tuesday, attracting a total of $403 million in net inflows, according to data from SoSoValue . Key Takeaways: U.S. spot Bitcoin ETFs extended their inflow streak to nine days, adding $403 million on Tuesday. Despite gains, outflows hit Grayscale’s GBTC, Fidelity’s FBTC, and Ark & 21Shares’ ARKB. Ethereum spot ETFs also recorded eight straight days of inflows, adding $192 million. Leading the charge was BlackRock’s IBIT, which alone saw $416.35 million in new money, followed by VanEck’s HODL with $19 million. Other funds such as Grayscale’s Mini Bitcoin Trust and Bitwise’s BITB also reported positive inflows for the day. Notable Outflows Hit Grayscale, Fidelity, and Ark Bitcoin Funds However, the gains were partially offset by outflows from three funds: Grayscale’s GBTC lost $41.22 million, Fidelity’s FBTC saw $23 million exit, and Ark & 21Shares’ ARKB dropped by $6.21 million. Spot bitcoin ETFs have now amassed a cumulative total of $53.07 billion in net inflows, with $4.4 billion added over the past nine trading days alone. The surge builds on a strong run that began in April, during which these funds have drawn nearly $17 billion. Ethereum spot ETFs have followed suit, marking their eighth straight day of net inflows, with $192.33 million added on Tuesday. Bitcoin currently trades at $117,373, holding steady near a key support level despite pulling back from a recent all-time high of $123,000 set earlier this week. “Bitcoin has been able to maintain a solid position at around $118K after core CPI data was lower than expected, prompting speculation that the Fed will be more likely to cut interest rates in September, potentially leading to a surge of demand for bitcoin,” said Nick Ruck, director of LVRG Research. #BTC we’re back at $116K as planned. CPI drops in an hour. IMO we’ll either see a quick liquidity grab below or hold this level and push higher. pic.twitter.com/lSkgGcB2au — Mind Over Market | by Llamito (@LlamitoCharts) July 15, 2025 Last week, US-based spot Bitcoin ETFs recorded over $1 billion in inflows for two straight days. On Friday, 11 spot Bitcoin ETF products reported combined inflows totaling $1.03 billion, following $1.17 billion the previous day. Recently, BlackRock reported earning more revenue from IBIT than from its flagship iShares Core S&P 500 ETF. 95% Approval Chance for Spot Solana, XRP ETFS As reported, Bloomberg’s senior ETF analysts have assigned a 95% chance that the SEC will approve spot ETFs for Solana, XRP, and Litecoin this year, raising their previous odds from 90% amid growing optimism for institutional crypto products. They also expect a crypto index ETF tracking multiple assets could gain approval as early as this week, signaling broader access to altcoins for traditional investors. Beyond ETFs, institutional Bitcoin demand is spreading into corporate treasuries. Japan’s Metaplanet recently bought $93 million worth of BTC , becoming the fifth-largest corporate holder with a stack exceeding 16,300 BTC. France’s The Blockchain Group and the UK’s Smarter Web Company also made new BTC treasury allocations this week, purchasing $12.5 million and $24.3 million worth of Bitcoin respectively.
