TREE NEWS update: Coinbase and Gennius plan to give users access to the ONED stablecoin through banks in Latin America, starting in Argentina. Under the plan, customers can convert eligible deposits into ONED USD, enabling round-the-clock transfers and spending via Visa.
Coinbase and Gennius to Offer ONED Stablecoin Access via Latin American Banks
The notable part is the distribution channel, not the stablecoin: routing access through existing banks gives regulated deposit rails a direct path into tokenized dollars, which matters more for adoption than another exchange listing. Latin American banking partners effectively become on-ramps, putting them in competition with local crypto-native services. Whether other banks in the region follow, and how regulators treat deposit-to-token conversion, is the open question.
