Argentina is on the list of Latin American nations leading the way in digital currency adoption. Its capital, Buenos Aires, wants to become one of the crypto-hubs where blockchain startups and exchanges can operate comfortably.
Authorities in the Argentine province of Mendoza announced late last week that locals can now pay taxes with tokens.
The region is home to more than 2 million people and is one of the most populous in the country. Therefore, in order for tax payments in digital currencies to become widespread, it will take time for the leadership to build the necessary infrastructure in Mendoza.
