AI Overview

March 23, 2026: Cuba's Central Bank (Resolution 4/2026) issued one-year licenses to 10 mostly private firms to use cryptocurrencies exclusively for international payments; licenses require quarterly reporting and forbid domestic crypto use. - The move is aimed at bypassing U.S. sanctions amid a six-year economic crisis and could boost crypto adoption and demand for remittance rails, affecting CEX/DEX flow and on‑ramp activity. - Scope is limited and experimental (one-year term, reporting requirements), reducing immediate legal risk but leaving regulatory uncertainty and operational constraints for firms beyond the license period.
