Bitso offers some digital assets with limited transactions. You can buy, sell, and convert them in the Bitso app. They come with specific restrictions on how you can trade and hold them.
In Argentina, xStocks are also digital assets with limited transactions. They follow the same restrictions.
Why do these digital assets have limited transactions?
Limiting certain features lets Bitso offer more digital assets while keeping the same security standards across the platform. It also lets Bitso add new digital assets faster.
How do you identify these digital assets?
Digital assets with limited transactions show a "Limited transactions" label on their detail page in the Bitso app.
What can you use to buy, sell, and convert these digital assets?
You can buy, sell, and convert digital assets with limited transactions using:
- Local currency: Mexican pesos (MXN), Colombian pesos (COP), Argentine pesos (ARS)
- Stablecoins: Digital Dollar (USDC), Tether (USDT), MXNB
- Crypto: Bitcoin (BTC), Ethereum (ETH), Solana (SOL), XRP
What are the trading restrictions?
- You can buy, sell, and convert them only through the Bitso app. They are not available on Bitso Alpha.
- You can only place basic buy and sell orders. Scheduled orders and limit orders are not available.
What is the minimum amount to buy, sell, or convert these digital assets?
The minimum amount for each buy, sell, or conversion is 5.25 US dollars. The app shows this minimum in the currency or asset you use for the transaction.
Can you deposit, withdraw, or send these digital assets?
Bitso holds these assets for you. You cannot deposit or withdraw most of them to or from an external crypto wallet.
Some digital assets with limited transactions accept deposits and withdrawals on one supported network. All other restrictions still apply to them.
To check if an asset accepts deposits and withdrawals, open its detail page in the Bitso app. If it does, you see a deposit option on that page. The asset also appears in the crypto deposit and withdrawal section of the app.
You can send any digital asset with limited transactions to another Bitso user with Bitso Transfer.
Are these digital assets secure?
Yes. Bitso applies the same security standards to these assets as to every other digital asset on the platform. Your balance stays fully backed, whether or not the asset accepts deposits and withdrawals.
Didn't work? Here's what to do
If the app shows that the amount is not enough to complete the transaction, your amount is below the minimum of 5.25 US dollars. Enter a higher amount and try again.
If your balance of a digital asset with limited transactions is below 5.25 US dollars, you cannot sell it. To sell it, first increase your balance to at least the minimum in one of these ways:
- Convert another asset you hold into this digital asset.
- Deposit funds to your Bitso account and buy more of this digital asset.
