As was made known by Mastercard CEO Michael Miebach, the Binance card pilot has kicked off in Argentina. The Binance Card was previously introduced as part of a partnership between Binance and Mastercard to bridge the gap between cryptocurrency and regular purchases. At the time, it was stated that Argentina would be the first to have the product in Latin America.

The announcement by Binance to include XRP, SHIB and AVAX on the Binance Card was similarly welcomed. Fourteen cryptocurrencies, including BUSD, USDT, USDC, BTC, BNB, ETH, ADA, DOT, SOL, MANA, SXP, XRP, SHIB and AVAX, are currently supported by the Binance Argentina Card.
