Crypto exchange Bitfinex has launched a new peer-to-peer (P2P) crypto trading platform in Argentina, Colombia, and Venezuela to consolidate its roots in Latin America.  The platform will allow users to purchase and sell the two leading cryptocurrencies, Bitcoin (BTC) and Ether (ETH). The new trading platform will also support Tether's stablecoins pegged to euros, U.S. dollars, and gold: EURT, USDT, and XAUT.  The payments will be able to be made through domestic currencies based on the users' choice. The move came nearly one month after Bitfinex invested in a Chilean crypto exchange, OrionX, with an undisclosed amount to expand its presence in Latin America.  In April, the platform also received El Salvador's first digital asset service provider license through its arm in the crypto-friendly Central American country, Bitfinex Securities El Salvador.
