Source: Criptonoticias Original Title: Ripio reveals it has the second largest cryptocurrency treasury in Latin America Original Link: The cryptocurrency exchange Ripio took advantage of DevConnect 2025, which is taking place this week in Buenos Aires, to reveal that it currently has more than 100 million dollars (USD) in digital assets. With this figure, the Argentine firm ranks among the companies with the largest cryptocurrency treasury in Latin America, occupying the second place in the region.

The data was confirmed by the CEO of Ripio, Sebastián Serrano, who explained that the accumulation strategy began eight years ago, with initial purchases of bitcoin (BTC) and ether (ETH) in 2017. Since then, the company has managed that capital through trading operations and hedging mechanisms, although it chose not to disclose the performance obtained or the exact composition of its portfolio.

The revelation allows for the sizing of the regional ecosystem. The only company that surpasses Ripio in cryptocurrency investment volume is the Brazilian OranjeBTC, which this year established itself as the largest corporate treasury in Latin America. It currently holds 3,713 BTC, a reserve whose value, at the time of writing this article, exceeds USD 306 million.

Méliuz and Mercado Libre are located at lower positions on the list, with considerably smaller holdings. The former manages 604.7 BTC (USD 49.84 million ), while the latter reports 570 BTC (USD 46.92 million ).

In addition to managing its treasury, Ripio has allocated part of its capital to early participation in projects in the sector. According to the company, it invested in the early stages of initiatives that today have a significant weight in the ecosystem, such as Polygon and ZKSync.

In parallel with the expansion of its treasury and strategic investments, Ripio launched this month wARS, a stablecoin backed 1:1 by the Argentine peso. This new asset —available on Ethereum, World Chain, and Base— aims to facilitate digital payments, remittances, and cross-border transactions, and is part of a broader plan to tokenize traditional currencies and assets.

BTC-2.13%
ETH-2.45%
ZK-11.21%

Ripio's position in Latin America has indeed stabilized, but how is this "second largest" title calculated?

Is Ripio that impressive? The second largest treasury—no wonder they're confident enough to make a high-profile appearance at Devcon.

Ripio's move this time is pretty good; being called the second largest exchange in Latin America wasn't just hype.
