๐ SPECIAL REPORT: Liquidity Shortage Hampers Crypto-to-Cash Conversions in Cuba
NEW YORK, DEC 12, 2025 โ 5:12 AM EST โ Despite a growing and enthusiastic base of cryptocurrency users in Cuba, a significant structural hurdle is impeding the full utility of digital assets: the severe lack of deep domestic liquidity.
This challenge makes converting substantial amounts of cryptocurrency into local Cuban Peso (CUP) difficult and inefficient.
While crypto adoption is rising as a workaround for international transactions and economic sanctions, the absence of robust, well-capitalized exchanges or over-the-counter (OTC) markets within the country creates a bottleneck for users seeking to cash out. This phenomenon is highly educational, underscoring that high adoption rates do not automatically equate to a mature financial ecosystem. $GIGGLE
A truly functional digital asset market requires readily available, liquid pathways back into fiat currency.
The current situation means that large-volume conversions are often slow, costly, and subject to high slippage,
effectively limiting cryptoโs role as a reliable medium of exchange for major domestic transactions. Addressing this domestic liquidity deficit is paramount for crypto to transition from being primarily a remittance tool to a truly integrated part of the Cuban economy.
