It has also revealed its partnership with Bitex, a blockchain-based financial services based in Latin America.
An informational page about the new service on Masvestas’s website explained that “the service allows you to reduce costs associated with international transfers as there are no international banks [serving] as intermediaries.” (Translated quote.) https://i.imgur.com/P4XFi4a.png https://web.facebook.com/BMVBancoMasventas/photos/a.262412513792316.69079.261137243919843/1910955372271347/?type=1&theater (https://web.facebook.com/BMVBancoMasventas/photos/a.262412513792316.69079.261137243919843/1910955372271347/?type=1&theater) Argentina’s blockchain and cryptocurrency ambitions have witnessed regular growth over the past several months, and the Argentinian government has been relatively welcoming to the technology.
