Aptos Partners With Bitso to Access Stablecoin Markets in Latam
The partnership between Aptos and Bitso will allow the blockchain, which caters to cost-conscious users, to access Latam stablecoin markets that handle billions in transactions. Aptos aims to capture a share of the U.S.-Mexico corridor activity, which involves millions of transactions made by numerous users.
Aptos Partners With Bitso to Enter the Stablecoin Market in Latin America
The stablecoin market in Latam is experiencing significant growth, and companies are rallying to be part of it. Aptos, a low-cost, low-latency blockchain, has announced a partnership with Bitso, one of the largest cryptocurrency exchanges in the region, to offer a cost-effective option for transacting stablecoins
The partnership will include Aptos-based stablecoins, including USDC and USDT, on Bitso’s platform, which serves 9 million customers. According to Bitso’s latest report, stablecoins were involved in 46% of all transactions during the first half of 2025, showing the region’s appetite for these tools.
With this move, Aptos aims to capture part of the U.S.—Mexico corridor activity, which moves billions of dollars transacted by millions of users who would benefit from the sub-second transaction finality and near-zero gas fees offered by the Aptos network.
Ash Pampati, head of ecosystem at Aptos Foundation, recognized that Latam is at the forefront of the stablecoin revolution and acknowledged the relevance of the partnership with Bitso as an enabler. “By bringing best-in-class stablecoin performance to the region, we’re enabling practical everyday use cases that demonstrate the real-world value of blockchain technology,” he stated.
Ben Reid, Head of Stablecoins at Bitso, also referred to the benefits that Aptos’ rails would offer to the exchange’s users. “Aptos is laying the framework for a truly global trading engine, centered on speed, low-cost, and real-world scale. We’re delighted to partner with them and extend those benefits to our millions of users around the world,” he assessed.
Aptos, alongside Ripple and other companies, is positioning itself to leverage the projected growth of stablecoins. Goldman Sachs analysts recently estimated that the market cap of these tools might reach trillions of dollars.
