Latin America's monthly active cryptocurrency users are expanding at a rate three times faster than in the United States, according to Lemon's annual report. The region's digital asset receipts surpassed $730 billion in 2025, marking a 60% year-over-year increase and accounting for 10% of the global total. Brazil leads in capital volume with over $318.8 billion in receipts, driven by institutional trading and local payment system integration, while Argentina boasts the highest per capita user penetration at 12%.
The report highlights that in high-inflation economies like Argentina and Venezuela, cryptocurrencies are primarily used as a store of value, with USDT being popular for daily transactions in Venezuela. In contrast, users in more stable markets such as Peru and Colombia focus on financial returns. Stablecoins are identified as the key driver of crypto adoption in the region, maintaining strong growth throughout 2025.
