Binance Survey: 95% of Latin American Crypto Investors Plan to Increase Holdings in 2025
A new Binance Research survey conducted across Argentina, Brazil, Colombia, and Mexico found that 95% of Latin American crypto investors plan to expand their portfolios in 2025.
The study, which surveyed over 10,000 participants, revealed that 40.1% aim to invest within three months, 15.3% within six months, and 39.7% within a year, leaving only 4.9% uninterested in further investments.
Latin America continues to be a hotspot for crypto adoption, with user growth surging 116% in 2024, according to research from payments firm Triple-A. The region now accounts for 55 million cryptocurrency users, nearly 10% of the global total.
Several factors are driving this surge, including rising crypto prices, regulatory advancements, and the introduction of new financial products like spot Bitcoin ETFs. Brazil, for example, recently became the first country to approve a spot XRP ETF, signaling growing institutional interest.
“The crypto ecosystem in Latin America is expanding at an unprecedented pace, and this research validates what we’re witnessing on the ground,” said Guilherme Nazar, Binance’s regional VP for Latin America.
The survey also highlighted wealth creation, financial independence, and portfolio diversification as the top reasons investors continue to embrace cryptocurrencies. Many also see crypto as a hedge against inflation and an alternative to traditional banking systems.
