Bitget has registered in Argentina as a Virtual Asset Service Provider, expanding the exchange's list of regulated markets across Latin America.
Bitget Clears Argentine Registry
The exchange completed its listing under the National Securities Commission, known as the CNV, within the regulator's registry for virtual asset service providers. The status now makes the company an obligated entity before Argentina's Financial Information Unit. That designation links it to anti-money-laundering and counter-terrorism-financing duties overseen by the unit and other authorities.
The listing also slots the firm into the framework Argentine regulators currently apply to virtual asset platforms, where supervision keeps shifting. Adoption in the country has climbed as residents seek alternative financial tools and access to global markets.

Compliance Drives Latin America Push
Gracy Chen, CEO at Bitget, tied the registration to a broader regional strategy. "Regulatory frameworks for digital assets continue developing across Latin America, making compliance and registration increasingly important for platforms operating in the region," she said. The country ranks among Latin America's busiest crypto markets, with nearly 20% of the population using digital assets and more than 15,000 businesses accepting crypto payments.
Bitget has spent recent months securing local registrations across several markets, with Mexico its latest milestone before Argentina. The company frames the effort as a long-term bet on regions where regulation and crypto adoption are maturing at the same time.
