Payment liquidity for tokenized assets
In LATAM, ownership of tokenized assets, whether crypto/stablecoins, digital commodities, or real-world asset tokens, is growing rapidly. Yet for most holders, value remains locked. To use it, they must first liquidate on an exchange, wait for settlement, transfer to a bank, and cash out - losing time and money at every step.
The pain points are clear
- Locked value: Tokenized assets sit idle in wallets, unable to be used for daily transactions without liquidation.
Slow liquidation: Exchanges, settlements, and bank transfers create delays that break trust. - High costs: Conversion steps add fees, spreads, and compliance overhead, reducing margins for providers and customers.
- Limited accessibility: Cashing out assumes access to a bank account, excluding many users.
- Fragmented journey: Users move between wallets, exchanges, and banks to unlock liquidity, driving churn.
