- Argentina’s CNV regulator expanded its tokenization framework to include stocks and bonds, modernizing its capital markets with new digital asset rules.
- A new social network for electronic music fans, built around NFT tickets, has gathered over 800,000 users across Latin America.
The Argentine startup BOMBO has confirmed the sale of more than 1 million tokenized tickets since its launch two years ago. These non-fungible tokens (NFTs) have been used for access to over 1,300 electronic music events across the country. This commercial activity provided the foundation for the company’s recent expansion into Chile and Peru, a move executed without reliance on external investment capital.
The platform was originally designed to combat ticket fraud prevalent in the live events industry. It utilizes the traceable nature of blockchain-based tokens to verify the authenticity of each entry pass. The system also simplifies sales management and tracking for event organizers.
This development aims to facilitate community interaction and support organic promotion for events. The social component currently reports a user base exceeding 800,000 people. With this established user network and technological infrastructure, the company initiated its Latin American expansion.
Tickets are now available for electronic music events in Chile and Peru scheduled for the remainder of 2025 and into 2026. The company also noted a limited number of events in Uruguay. The selection of Chile and Peru for expansion stems from an identified market need. Both countries host a wide array of events but reportedly lack comprehensive tools serving their local communities.
Consequently, the startup has set specific market capture goals for its first year of operation. In Chile, the objective is to secure 50% of all massive festivals. For Peru, the target involves capturing at least 25% of the electronic music market.
A company representative stated that the electronic scene in Latin America grows daily, but tools that protect the public, empower producers, and provide real visibility for local talent are still missing.
In Chile, the first event available for purchase on the platform is ARTBAT, scheduled for October 31. This will be followed by the Resistance festival in December and the Elrow event in January. For its debut in Peru, the platform is handling ticketing for the Resistance event on December 5, which will feature international DJs including Adam Beyer and Korolova.
Argentina’s Regulatory Body Broadens the Scope of Its Capital Markets Tokenization Framework
Argentina’s National Securities Commission (CNV) has approved a new modification to its Tokenization Regime through General Resolution No. 1087. This update expands the scope of the framework originally established by RG No. 1081. The regulatory body announced that the measure aims to continue innovation, encompass more admissible instruments, and simplify processes for digital representation within the capital markets.
The range of financial instruments now eligible for this digital representation has been widened. The update includes assets such as shares, negotiable obligations, debt representation securities, certificates of participation in financial trusts, and units of closed common credit investment funds with a public offering.
The president of the CNV, Roberto E. Silva, stated that the modification incorporates new instruments and procedures. These additions facilitate the issuance and trading of digitally represented assets within a regulated environment. The resolution also mandates that issuers requesting authorization for digital representation must include an additional chapter in their documentation. The requirement applies even when prior prospectus approval is not necessary.
According to the CNV, these modifications strengthen the Argentine regulatory framework for the tokenization of financial assets. The changes form part of a broader strategy to modernize the capital markets, improve access to financing, and simplify administrative procedures.
