That is a move in the right direction from Mexico and interestingly it is coming at a time when the U.S. plan to clamp on remittances going out of the U.S. to Mexico. The proposal for the exchange not to lend client's funds is a welcome development that could further the adoption of Bitcoin and separate them from the traditional bank.

This is going to be a game changer for the space but that means Mexican will need to play by the rule and start filing their tax returns on profit made on BTC

Already made a post in another thread on this news.
Mexico announced a bill saying "Bitcoin is officially viewed as a digital asset to Mexican exchanges"

Will this designation improve or hinder bitcoin's growth in the long run?

It seems after Japan, Mexico follows suit.
I don't see it as a game changer but it's something welcome. More countries will follow.
