Source Cryptopolitan

Mercado Bitcoin, the leading Latin American crypto platform, has launched the MBRL stablecoin on the Tron blockchain. MB’s November 19th statement noted that the MBRL will be pegged on the Brazilian real, making it reliable and convenient for digital asset investors in Latin America. The statement highlighted that MBRL’s integration with Tron will provide access to a fast, accessible, and scalable smart contract platform.

In MB’s view, MBRL combines the stability and trust of Brazilian fiat currency with the utility of tokenization. MB claims the stablecoin was designed to act as a value store with liquidity for any withdrawal, including on weekends and holidays. Furthermore, MBRL will integrate into DeFi platforms, blockchain wallets, and dApps for unmatched versatility and ease of use.

MBRL introduces a new era of Brazilian finance on Tron

Lucca Benedetti, product analyst at MB, said the introduction of the MBRL stablecoin was a significant milestone for MB and the growing Brazilian crypto community. He noted that the Tron blockchain had already been widely adopted in the region. Benedetti emphasized further solidification of MB’s presence within the Tron network through MBRL’s launch. He expressed his enthusiasm for seeing the positive changes MBRL would bring. 

Sam Elfarra, community spokesperson at TRON DAO, echoed Benedetti’s sentiments, saying he was thrilled about MBRL’s launch on Tron. He pointed out that the launch was a huge step in Tron Dao’s mission to provide efficient, accessible, and scalable blockchain solutions globally. He added that the MBRL launch would help showcase the robustness and versatility of the Tron network.

“I believe MRBL will play a key role in accelerating the adoption of blockchain technology across the region.”

MB’s November 19th press release revealed that the Tron layer 1 open-source blockchain protocol had recorded over $14 trillion in total transfer volumes. The statement added that the trusted ecosystem for individuals, institutions, and developers had over 271 user accounts.

The Mercado Bitcoin-TRON partnership opens opportunities for Latin America

The Mercado Bitcoin statement asserted that the Tron network stood out for its ability to handle small and large transactions. Its cost-effectiveness and speed made it popular, especially among retailers.

Notably, retail users preferred Tron for fast, frequent, and low-cost transactions like micropayments, remittances, and peer-to-peer transfers. Leveraging the Tron network would, therefore, enable MB to offer MBRL users faster and more reliable asset transfers with lower fees. Being on Tron would enhance the overall efficiency and accessibility of MBRL transactions.

Additionally, MB disclosed that customers in supported jurisdictions could now buy MBRL on Mercado Bitcoin’s offer book or issue it directly with a deposit of BRL.

They would then receive MBRL stablecoins that could be easily transacted in seconds. According to MB, the management and custody of MBRL will be carried out by Mercado Bitcoin’s payment institution, MB Pay.

Mercado Bitcoin confirmed it will offer the newly launched MBRL stablecoin to its over 4 million customers, accumulated in over 11 years of operation. They claim it is a benchmark in blockchain and the tokenized economy. The crypto platform affirmed that it operates with the highest standards of financial integrity and transparency.
