During the Regulation Day 2025 event, Bybit, the second-largest cryptocurrency exchange in the world by volume, reaffirmed its stance on regulatory collaboration and its strategic focus on the advancement of digital assets in Latin America.
The event, held in Buenos Aires and organized by Crecimiento, as part of the Devconnect ARG, brought together over 1,500 attendees, including regulators, legislators, and private sector leaders, to discuss the future of virtual assets and artificial intelligence.
The fourth edition of Regulation Day solidified itself as the main forum for addressing the framework for digital assets. Bybit’s participation underscores the central role that virtual asset platforms must play in creating a solid regulatory framework.
Mykolas Majauskas, Bybit’s Director of Policy, and Patricio Mesri, CEO of Bybit LATAM, exchanged insights on the on-chain economy and the path toward effective and progressive regulations.
During the panel “Public-Private Collaboration in Crypto: The Role of VASPs in Policy Making,” Majauskas shared the stage with key industry figures, including Manuel Beaudroit (Belo), Julián Colombo (Bitso), and Connor Spelliscy (Ethereum Foundation). The debate focused on how cryptocurrency regulation in Argentina and the region can foster the long-term success of the industry.
Argentina, a Progressive Hub for Digital Assets
Argentina is solidifying its position as a progressive force in digital asset regulation during 2025, incorporating cryptocurrencies as part of broader economic reforms.
Majauskas emphasized the importance of this approach: “In Latin America, cryptocurrency is not theory, it is a tool that people rely on every day. Regulation that protects users while allowing for innovation is what will unlock the full potential of digital assets for the real economy,” he noted.
The executive celebrated that “Argentina’s openness to dialogue with the industry, learning from global standards, and adapting frameworks to local realities is exactly what drives healthy and sustainable growth in this sector.”
Crypto transaction volume in Argentina reached $93.9 billion between 2024 and June 2025, positioning it as the second-largest crypto market in Latin America, only behind Brazil. This robust data supports the need for clear and progressive cryptocurrency regulation in Argentina.
Patricio Mesri, CEO of Bybit LATAM, reinforced the vision of inclusion: “In this part of the world, crypto is not about exclusivity, but about inclusion. More and more people are moving past speculation and using stablecoins for daily life,” he stated. Mesri highlighted that digital assets are generating on-chain financial inclusion, providing everything from access to capital to affordable payment methods.
Cryptocurrency regulation creates the foundation of trust that consumers and businesses need to drive mass adoption. With events like Regulation Day, Argentina is establishing itself as a regional center for dialogue, innovation, and a benchmark in cryptocurrency regulation.
