DEMYSTIFYING CRYPTO
AMI can help your company develop opportunities from LatAm’s rising rates of crypto adoption while also educating your leadership teams about this new payment and monetary revolution.
Cryptocurrency Surges in Latin America
Recent research from AMI has shown that 1 of 3 Latin Americans are interested in buying crypto assets. While it may seem like a passing fad, Latin Americans have very practical reasons for adopting cryptocurrency beyond just seeking a new form of investment. They also want to protect themselves against inflation, avoid government controls, gain access to stablecoins and obtain lower fees from the banks.
