  • Global digital assets leader Nexo establishes Buenos Aires as its Latin American hub, supporting long-term investment and partnerships across Argentina, Peru, and Mexico.
  • Buenbit clients to gain access to Nexo’s full suite of products, top-tier security, and personalized client care.

Nexo, the premier digital asset platform with $11 billion in assets under management, today announced its acquisition of Buenbit, one of Latin America’s most trusted and fastest-growing crypto platforms. This strategic transaction marks a milestone in Nexo’s global scaling, uniting the company’s advanced liquidity infrastructure and high-yield products with Buenbit’s deep local expertise and strong customer base.

Through the acquisition of Buenbit, a CNV-registered Virtual Asset Service Provider, Nexo cements its global footprint in the world’s most promising digital asset market – Latin America. Buenbit has become a cornerstone of crypto adoption in Argentina and Peru, known for its user-friendly platform, compliance-first approach, and innovative fiat-to-crypto solutions tailored to the region’s dynamic markets.

Bringing the platforms together

As a result of the acquisition, Buenbit clients will gain access to Nexo’s global suite of crypto wealth-building products, benefiting from top-tier security standards, high-yield earning opportunities, crypto-backed credit in markets where traditional lending is limited, along with personalized client care. With Nexo’s award-winning product suite, clients can trade more than 100 cryptocurrencies across 1,500+ pairs, use structured products such as Dual Investment, engage in advanced futures trading, and benefit from Nexo’s loyalty program powered by the $NEXO Token.

Antoni Trenchev, Co-founder, Nexo:

“Argentina has long been a proving ground for fintech innovation. By joining forces with a team that knows this market inside out, we’re taking a confident first step in bringing Nexo’s global resources to a local context. With Nexo’s scale and Buenbit’s relationships and experience, our innovative solutions will find fertile ground for exponential growth in the next 12 months.”

Federico Ogue, CEO, Buenbit:

“Partnering with Nexo is the natural next step in our evolution. We’ve proven that local insight and product breadth can drive innovation in Argentina, where preserving value is paramount. Now, with our community’s trust and Nexo’s global scale, we are ready to extend that impact across the region, empowering people to save, invest, and grow wealth in a stable, transparent, and regulated environment.”

The completion of the transaction is subject to customary regulatory approvals.
