Mexico City will make history this August as it hosts the region’s first large-scale conference dedicated entirely to stablecoins.
The Stablecoin Conference 2025 takes place August 27-28 at the World Trade Center, bringing together over 1,000 industry experts from around the globe.
This groundbreaking event comes at a crucial time for Latin America’s crypto ecosystem. According to the recently launched third edition of the Crypto Landscape in Latin America report presented by Bitso, stablecoins dominated purchases in 2024, accounting for 39% of all digital assets acquired. The timing reflects how these dollar-pegged digital currencies have become essential tools for millions dealing with currency volatility and expensive cross-border payments.
Why Mexico City Matters for Global Finance
The choice of Mexico City as the venue is strategic. Mexico City’s strategic position in the $150B U.S.-Latin America remittance corridor underscores its role as a hub for stablecoin innovation and adoption. Mexico has also emerged as a hub for fintech innovation, making it the ideal location to discuss the future of digital payments.
Bitso Business, the B2B arm of Latin America’s largest crypto exchange, is organizing the conference. The company already processes more than $12 billion per year in cross-border payments using stablecoin infrastructure, connecting global companies to Latin American markets.
“At Bitso Business, we provide the infrastructure that allows global companies to move more than $12 billion dollars per year in cross-border payments in a faster, safer, and more cost-efficient way,” explains Imran Ahmad, Bitso Business General Manager. “Now we have the pleasure to build on this expertise and partner with industry leaders from traditional banking to blockchain-based markets to bring the first stablecoin conference to Latin America.”

Regional Context Drives Urgency
According to the Bitso Business study, conducted by PCMI, “From Barriers to Bridges: How Blockchain Can Reshape Cross-Border Payments in Latin America”, stablecoins are rapidly emerging as preferred methods for global value transfer, by removing intermediaries, cutting costs, and increasing transaction speeds.
This practical adoption has caught the attention of regulators, business leaders, and global financial institutions. The conference represents a chance to shape the policies and partnerships that will define how stablecoins function across the region going forward.
The conference is now officially open for ticket sales, offering an exclusive 30% early bird discount for a limited time. Target attendees include financial institutions, fintech startups, payment providers, regulators, and crypto & Web3 professionals.
The Future of Digital Finance Starts Here
The Stablecoin Conference 2025 arrives as Latin America transitions from early crypto adoption to broader integration of digital assets into mainstream finance. The conference offers a platform to shape the regulatory and operational frameworks that will define stablecoin use in the region.
With Mexico City positioned as a bridge between global crypto trends and regional adoption needs, this inaugural event sets the stage for Latin America’s continued leadership in practical cryptocurrency applications. The outcomes may well determine whether stablecoins fulfill their promise of creating more accessible, efficient financial systems for the region’s 650 million residents.
