Binance habilitó los depósitos en bolívares para comprar criptomonedas en Venezuela, según reportó Noticias Barquisimeto el 16 de octubre de 2026. El titular es grande, pero para el comercio P2P de USDT lo relevante no es el anuncio en sí, sino lo que el mercado local muestra al mismo tiempo. Aquí va el contraste con datos medibles.
📊 El anuncio, en su justa medida
La fuente consultada confirma la habilitación de depósitos en bolívares dentro de Binance. Hasta ahí llega la información disponible: no hay detalle verificable sobre comisiones, montos mínimos y máximos, lista de bancos habilitados ni si el nuevo canal convive con el mercado P2P o compite con él. Ese vacío es parte de la noticia y conviene no rellenarlo con suposiciones.
Lo que sí se puede medir es el terreno donde la mayoría de los usuarios venezolanos convierte bolívares a USDT y viceversa: las ofertas P2P registradas por Radar P2P y el libro de órdenes agregado de Binance y otras plataformas.
📈 La prima frente al BCV: 14,68%
Al cierre de esta medición, el USDT P2P se cotizaba en Bs 1.010,37 para compra y Bs 979,82 para venta. La tasa oficial del BCV estaba en Bs 881,07 por dólar. De esa relación sale la prima de 14,68% frente al BCV.
• USDT P2P (compra): Bs 1.010,37
• USDT P2P (venta): Bs 979,82
• Dólar BCV: Bs 881,07
• Dólar paralelo: Bs 1.000,93
• Prima del USDT P2P vs BCV: 14,68%
• USDT P2P vs dólar paralelo: 0,94% por encima
Lectura importante: la prima no es un fenómeno atribuible al anuncio. El dólar paralelo ya cotiza alrededor de 13,6% por encima del BCV. Es decir, buena parte de la prima del USDT responde a la brecha cambiaria general y no a un movimiento interno de la plataforma. Con la información disponible, no hay evidencia de que el anuncio haya alterado esa relación.
🔎 Spread: 3,12% en Radar y 0,05% en el libro de órdenes
Aquí aparece un matiz que casi nunca se publica. Radar P2P reporta un spread de Bs 30,55 entre compra y venta, equivalente a 3,12%. En cambio, el libro de órdenes agregado muestra un mejor ask de Bs 1.004,79 y un mejor bid de Bs 1.004,27: spread de Bs 0,52, apenas 0,05%.
No es un error de cálculo: son dos mediciones distintas. Radar compara la mejor intención de compra y de venta de todo el mercado; el libro muestra la punta de profundidad. Conclusión práctica: el spread que ves depende del monto, del método de pago y de los límites de cada anuncio, no solo del precio en pantalla. El propio tablero marca este punto como advertencia: spread elevado, compara precios antes de operar.
El radar también detectó una diferencia de 2,00% entre plataformas (Bs 1.003,72 en una y Bs 1.023,78 en otra). El libro que medimos cubre Binance y otras plataformas, así que esa cifra debe leerse como señal de dispersión entre plataformas, no como un precio único de mercado.
💰 Liquidez: 268 ofertas activas y reparto por banco
El tablero registra 268 ofertas activas (96 de compra y 172 de venta). El libro agrega 329.564 USDT del lado de compra y 234.431 USDT del lado de venta, con un desequilibrio de 16,87% a favor de la demanda.
Banco o método Anuncios Liquidez medida Compra promedio Venta promedio Spread Banesco 26 20,8% Bs 1.006,76 Bs 996,60 1,02% Otro método 26 20,8% Bs 1.007,14 Bs 997,59 0,96% Banco de Venezuela 20 16,0% Sin dato Bs 1.003,81 Sin dato Pago Móvil 19 15,2% Bs 1.010,38 Bs 997,38 1,30% BANK 17 13,6% Sin dato Bs 1.003,81 Sin dato Bancamiga 5 4,0% Bs 1.005,45 Sin dato Sin dato Transferencia bancaria 4 3,2% Bs 1.010,00 Bs 995,75 1,43% Mercantil 3 2,4% Bs 1.006,13 Sin dato Sin dato Dos métodos concentran más del 40% de la liquidez medida: Banesco y Otro método, con 20,8% cada uno. Les siguen Banco de Venezuela (16%) y Pago Móvil (15,2%). En el extremo opuesto, Mercantil (2,4%) y Transferencia bancaria (3,2%) muestran menos anuncios, lo que suele traducirse en menos alternativas y mayor sensibilidad a los límites de cada oferta.
Nota de método: Radar P2P cuenta 268 ofertas activas, mientras el libro agregado totaliza 248 anuncios. La diferencia probablemente viene de cómo cada fuente deduplica y refresca la data. Ambas cifras, en todo caso, apuntan a un mercado con profundidad disponible, no a un mercado seco.

The U.S. Department of the Treasury’s Office of Foreign Assets Control (OFAC) issued a general license authorizing U.S. banks and money transfer companies registered in the country to process transactions intended to address the emergency caused by the twin earthquakes that struck Venezuela on June 24. The license expires on April 21, 2027.
For PitbullChain, the news has two layers. The first is obvious: it opens a formal channel for humanitarian aid to reach people without getting bogged down in the maze of banking compliance. The second, less obvious, is how far that permission extends—and where it stops—when the money being moved no longer travels through traditional banking but instead uses crypto rails.

📊 An announcement rooted in the community
Executive Vice President and Acting President Delcy Rodríguez announced that she will present a Local Economy Bill to the National Assembly, complementing the Communal Economy Law already in force. The idea, she explained, is for both legal instruments to bring together the efforts of communities, municipalities, and regions to achieve the goal of zero hunger before 2030.
Rodríguez also recalled her participation in the FAO World Food Summit in Rome, where she presented the Venezuela Alimenta Plan, an initiative that seeks to coordinate the country’s productive sectors. She also confirmed this Sunday’s popular consultation, in which community areas will choose their own projects.

The $USDT spread in Venezuela today is Bs. 38.77 (4.00%), and the premium over the BCV rate is 14.28%. That gap is an opportunity… and also bait. 🚨
With 272 active offers and Binance now enabling bolívar deposits via Pago Móvil, new people are joining every day. And wherever new people join, there are those who prey on others’ trust.
This is how the market is moving right now:
• Buy USDT: Bs. 1,006.88
• Sell USDT: Bs. 968.12
• BCV: Bs. 881.07
When you see an offer WAY below or WAY above those numbers, it’s no stroke of luck: it’s bait.

While people in Maracaibo are talking about barrels, turbines, and gas, the conversation elsewhere in the country still revolves around a much more down-to-earth question: How much is the dollar today? And although it may seem far removed, what’s being discussed at the Energy, Oil and Gas Conference (CEPEG 2026) has a direct impact on the wallet of anyone who buys USDT through P2P every day.
The plan is clear: PDVSA wants to increase production, and oil companies want to stop depending on the National Electric System (SEN). Roy Biagioni, president of the Zulia chapter of the Venezuelan Oil Chamber, said it plainly: by 2027, companies developing self-generation projects could operate independently of the state grid.

In a single snapshot of the Venezuelan market, two readings coexist that at first glance seem to contradict each other. On the one hand, the USDT/VES pair’s order book shows a top-of-book spread of just 0.20% (a difference of Bs. 2.00 between the best bid and ask prices). On the other hand, the overall P2P Radar snapshot reports an aggregate spread of 3.42% (a gap of Bs. 33.29).

American Airlines confirmed that, starting January 15, 2027, it will fly between Miami and Barcelona, the capital of Anzoátegui state, three times a week on Mondays, Wednesdays, and Fridays. The route will be operated with Embraer 175 aircraft featuring a first-class cabin, Wi-Fi, and power outlets. With this, the airline adds its third Venezuelan destination, after Caracas and Maracaibo, and remains the only U.S. carrier with regular service in the country.
The news, published by outlets specializing in banking and business, has an obvious tourism and family angle. But at PitbullChain, we believe there is a second angle, one that gets less attention and is more relevant to our community: direct air connectivity with Miami is infrastructure for the flow of money, goods, and people that sustains a large part of Venezuela’s P2P market.

Some business rivalries seem carved in stone, only to be rewritten without warning every so often. The latest move comes from the fast-food sector: KFC announced that starting in January, it will stop serving Pepsi at its 3,600 U.S. restaurants and switch back to Coca-Cola dispensers, ending an almost four-decade-long relationship with the company based in Purchase. For the average diner, it’s just a change of soft drink. For anyone following markets, interest rates, and consumer spending, it’s a masterclass in strategy that can be applied to almost any industry, including ours.

$USDT opened today at Bs. 1,007.43 to buy and Bs. 966.18 to sell. We broke the thousand mark. 🔥 And with that came the same old noise: headlines talking about a Bs. 41.25 spread (4.27%) that scares anyone just starting out.
Take a breath. I’ll explain why that number isn’t the one that affects you.
🔎 The spread that matters is the one on YOUR order book
If you open Binance P2P today, the actual listings are at Bs. 1,001.83 to buy and Bs. 999.38 to sell. That’s a spread of just Bs. 2.45, or 0.24%. The gap between that figure and the 4.27% headline comes down to how the overall average is calculated: it combines listings, amounts, and payment methods from across the market. Your trade doesn’t happen at the average; it happens at the listing you choose.

Choosing where to trade in Venezuela's P2P market often comes down to generic lists of platforms. However, for users who need to exchange bolívares (VES) for USDT or vice versa, the real decision depends on three variables that can be measured in real time: how much liquidity each exchange has at a given moment, which bank offers the lowest spread, and which side the order book is tilted toward.

Credicard Consortium continues to expand its physical presence across the country. Through its CredicardPOS brand, the company opened a sales office in Puerto Ordaz, adding Bolívar state to a network that already covers Caracas, Miranda, Zulia, Carabobo, Nueva Esparta, Lara, Aragua, Táchira, Monagas, Anzoátegui, Barinas, Guárico, Mérida, Portuguesa, Sucre, and Trujillo. This is no small move: in a business where merchants worry about being unable to process payments on a Friday night, having technical support close at hand matters just as much as the price of the equipment.

The Venezuelan Petroleum Chamber, Zulia chapter, announced one of those stories this week that sounds like a turning point on paper: PDVSA plans to meet the energy needs of its operations in the Lake Maracaibo basin with its own power generation before the end of the year. In other words, the oil industry would stop drawing electricity from the National Electric System to run rigs, pumps, and plants, and would secure its operations with its own generating capacity.
For Roy Biagioni, president of the Zulia oil industry association, the move is great news. And it makes sense: unreliable electricity service has been one of the most persistent headaches for operations on the lake. Other experts, however, would rather temper the optimism: setting up a self-generation system capable of meeting actual demand on such a tight timeline is no easy task.

The official dollar rate stood at 880.12 bolívares per dollar on October 16, according to the BCV reference published by Finanzas Digital, which showed a change of +0.113% [5] and was reported by media outlets such as RPP Noticias [4] and Caracol Radio [8]. Meanwhile, PitbullChain's P2P radar recorded USDT at 1,003.17 Bs. at the time of measurement. The gap between the two figures is 13.98%, making it the most frequently cited number of the week.

📊 Premium at 14.18%: how to spend USDT with a card without losing Bs.
Date: Friday, October 16, 2026 · Live data from the P2P Radar: buy Bs. 1004.93 · sell Bs. 961.28 · BCV Bs. 880.12 · premium 14.18%
Today, the P2P market opens at Bs. 1004.93 to buy and Bs. 961.28 to sell, with a spread of Bs. 43.65 and a premium of 14.18% compared with the BCV rate of Bs. 880.12. In this context, USDT-linked cards are back at the center of the conversation: they are no longer competing with cash, but with the cost of converting bolívares. The practical question is simple: how much does each dollar you spend with a crypto card really cost you compared with selling it on the P2P market?
