Coinbase Seeking to Expand Bitcoin Services to Latin America
Coinbase is seeking to expand its bitcoin buying and selling services to new Asian and Latin American markets in
2016.
In interview at Money20/20, product manager Adam White indicated that the startup, which has so far raised more
than $106m in venture funding, aims to be operational in 40 countries next year, and that these regions would be
primary areas of focus.
In September, Coinbase announced its first launch in Asia with an expansion to Singapore, though it has yet to make
its services available in Latin America.
White said new announcements could come as soon as December or January, and that news was dependant on
Coinbase’s ability to meet local regulatory compliance.
He told CoinDesk:
“We continue to look at Coinbase as a infrastructure, providing programmatic access to buying and
selling.”
Elsewhere, White suggested that Coinbase is not looking to launch a private blockchain product for enterprise
businesses, as its US competitor itBit did in August.
White said Coinbase was likely to continue to emphasize strategic partnerships with consumer-facing payments

Coinbase investors include BBVA Ventures, the New York Stock Exchange (NYSE) and USAA, the latter of which
recently launched a pilot program that made select Coinbase services available to customers.
The expansion estimate is the latest for the San Francisco company, which had made international expansion a
cornerstone of its goals for 2015.
At the time of Coinbase’s $75m Series C round, announced in January, CEO Brian Armstrong forecasted that the
company could be available in as many as 30 countries by the year’s end.
Today, Coinbase is available in 32 countries.

If you’re interested in the bitcoin industry you need a place to buy/sell/store your bitcoins. You can open a
Coinbase account by clicking here. For security purposes you’ll need a copy of your legal identification
such as a driver’s license. It must be in color and clear. Also, a PDF of a utility, cable tv or phone bill to
prove your residence–screen shots are not allowed. Have these available when you open your account.
From personal experience I can tell you your enrollment process will go much smoother. Also, take note
that until you establish your ability to pay, Coinbase limits the amount of Bitcoins you can purchase for the
first couple of weeks. See website for details. To learn more about the business opportunity in bitcoin and
