Facing a deepening economic crisis, Bolivians are increasingly turning to cryptocurrency as a financial lifeline. Data shows a 530% increase in crypto transaction volume, climbing from $46.5 million to $294 million in the first half of 2025. With the national currency rapidly losing value and inflation hitting record highs, citizens are embracing digital assets—particularly Bitcoin and stablecoins—for savings, remittances, and daily spending. This shift highlights crypto's growing role as an alternative economic tool in financially unstable regions.
