🌎 LATAM is becoming ground zero for real-world crypto adoption.
With 4 countries in the top 20 and $415B+ in volume, the region is growind and it’s demanding better tools.
Stablecoins + RWA yield = real product-market fit, and @opentrade_io is right in the middle of it.
1/ As documented in @lemonapp_ar's State of the Crypto Industry 2024, Latin America has emerged as one of the world’s most dynamic regions for crypto adoption, ranking as the second fastest growing in terms of cryptocurrency value received - up more than 42% YoY, reaching over $415 billion and representing 9.1% of global volumes in 2024.
This surge is further reflected in the Global Crypto Adoption Index, where four Latin American countries (Argentina, Brazil, Mexico and Venezuela) rank among the top 20. Driving this momentum are both major global platforms like Binance, with 54% market share, and regional companies, including OpenTrade’s clients, such as @littioco, @belo_app, and @buenbit.
Stablecoins are central to this trend as users seek out stability in volatile economies. Over 75% of assets in the Lemon Earn product are held in stables like USDT, USDC and DAI, showing a real demand for stablecoin yield opportunities. That, combined with the recent drop of DeFi yields to sub-US Treasury rates, reinforces the strength of the use case for RWA-backed yield products in this region - such as those offered by OpenTrade.
