Latin America’s stablecoin-related transaction volume from 2022 to 2025 approaches $1.5 trillion

Deep Tide TechFlow News, June 14 — A recent report released by stablecoin payment infrastructure company Rain shows that from 2022 to 2025, the total cryptocurrency trading volume in Latin America approaches 1.5 trillion USD, with the vast majority of funds flowing into USD stablecoins.

Data from the report indicates that by early 2025, approximately 57.7 million people in Latin America hold digital assets, accounting for about 12% of the local population, reflecting a high user penetration rate of cryptocurrencies in the region.

Rain states that the core reason driving the rapid development of stablecoins is not market speculation, but real financial needs, including ongoing local currency devaluation, limited access to USD, high costs of cross-border remittances, and insufficient coverage by traditional banking services. Against this backdrop, USD stablecoins are gradually becoming an important tool for residents to store value and make payments.

Looking at specific markets, Brazil’s stablecoin trading volume is particularly prominent, accounting for about 90% of the country’s total cryptocurrency trading volume. In Colombia, approximately 99% of the funds used to purchase crypto assets through centralized exchanges with the local currency ultimately flow into stablecoin products.

As global stablecoin payment applications continue to expand, Latin America is becoming one of the most active regions for digital USD usage, and its development model is also receiving ongoing attention from both the crypto industry and traditional financial institutions.
