In the coming years, we will see companies start to finance themselves with cryptocurrencies. The capital markets of the future will be based on blockchain.
The Argentine exchange has been growing since 2022 when it announced an expansion to key markets likeĀ ColombiaĀ and theĀ U.S.Ā While Serrano acknowledges that Ripioās main income stream comes from retail trading fees, he expects to diversify this by introducing payment and tokenization products designed for institutions.
