๐ฆ๐ท๐จ ARGENTINA CHANGES THE RULES FOR CRYPTO PLATFORMS: WHAT HAPPENS TO YOUR FUNDS?
The National Securities Commission (CNV) today, 15/10, published General Resolution 1172/2026, updating the requirements for platforms that operate with cryptocurrencies in Argentina.
๐ WHAT CHANGES IN NOVEMBER?
VASP providers (virtual asset service providers, such as exchanges and custody platforms) will have to submit monthly information to the CNV.
The required data includes:
๐น Number of active clients.
๐น Trading volume expressed in dollars.
๐น The 10 most traded crypto assets.
๐น Number and value of assets under custody.
The new reporting regime applies to periods starting on or after 1/11/2026.
๐ก๏ธ ARE YOUR FUNDS BETTER PROTECTED?
The resolution also reorganizes registration, capital, and custody requirements.
But be aware: being registered with the CNV does NOT mean a platform guarantees your funds, nor does it eliminate the risk of insolvency.
โ ๏ธ IS IT PROHIBITED TO BUY
$BTC ,
$ETH O $USDT ?
NO. The measure does not establish a general ban on buying or selling cryptocurrencies, nor does it create a new tax by itself.
๐ฏ WHAT SHOULD YOU DO?
Before using an exchange, check that it appears in the CNV's VASP Registry.
Also review its custody, withdrawal, and security terms.
๐ OUR TAKE
More information for the regulator may improve oversight of the sector, but it does not replace the responsibility to assess where we deposit our assets.
