The digital asset trading platform Bitfinex has announced zero-fee trading for market takers on its peer-to-peer (P2P) trading platform in Argentina, Colombia, and Venezuela. This offering allows traders to buy and sell their digital assets at the market price without incurring any fees.

A Paradigm Shift in Latin American Crypto Trading?

In a statement on its website, Bitfinex stated: "Our P2P trading service, which has recently been made accessible to customers in Argentina, Colombia, and Venezuela, now offers market takers the advantage of immediate crypto-to-crypto settlements around the clock without incurring any fees."

To take advantage of this offer, users must sign in to their Bitfinex accounts and select the P2P option in the navigation menu. This process grants users immediate access to the platform's P2P services without transaction fees, the exchange explained.

Established in 2012, Bitfinex offers advanced trading features and charting tools. Its services extend access to P2P financing, an over-the-counter market, and margin trading for a wide range of digital tokens.

Bitfinex Emulates Leading Crypto Exchanges

This latest zero-fee trading initiative occurs at a time when crypto companies are rolling out similar offers to attract more users. Last year, Binance.US, the American affiliate Binance, announced zero-fee trading for Bitcoin (BTC). This strategy was aimed at eliminating trading charges for major cryptocurrencies in the future.

Similarly, Binance announced the introduction of zero-fee trading for BTC/FDUSD and (Ethereum) ETH/FDUSD pairs on its platform in August. The exchange said that this move reflected its commitment to innovation and enhancing the user experience. The offer began on August 4, 2023, at 08:00 UTC.

Binance's offering extended the zero-fee trading support to the First Digital USD (FUSD) stablecoin, allowing users to trade this stablecoin against both BTC and ETH. In addition to this support, Binance introduced zero-fee trading for the BTC/FDUSD and ETH/FDUSD pairs in both spot and margin trading.
