Mercado Bitcoin plans to tokenize financial assets worth over $200 million, marking the largest initiative of its kind in the Latin American market.
Mercado Bitcoin (MB), the largest digital asset platform in Latin America, announced plans to tokenize regulated financial assets totaling more than $200 million, including fixed-income and equity income instruments. The tokenization will utilize the public blockchain XRP Ledger (XRPL). The related press release was issued by Ripple.
By leveraging XRPL, the goal is to offer investors digital products with high liquidity, fast transaction speeds, and regulatory compliance.
The press release cites a report by Ripple and Boston Consulting Group, which estimates that the global market for tokenized real-world assets (RWA) could grow from $0.6 trillion in 2025 to $19 trillion by 2033.
MB is already ranked among the top five global platforms for tokenizing private debt instruments. As of June 2025, the company tokenized traditional financial assets worth over 1 billion Brazilian reais (~$182 million at current rates), including bonds and debt contracts. Since the program’s inception, there were no recorded defaults by borrowers.
Ripple supports MB with technical and organizational aspects of XRPL usage. The companies previously collaborated to launch a B2B international crypto payments service in Brazil. Additionally, Ripple Payments facilitated cross-border payments between Brazil and Portugal.
