El Salvador, with its comprehensive digital asset regulations, is preparing to host the first bitcoin-based capital markets infrastructure firm. The new infrastructure will be launched soon, aiming to position the country at the forefront of emerging trends in financial technology.
The trading platforms will be developed by two firms, Nexbridge and Nexplace, which have recently completed a Series A funding round, raising $8 million for this initiative. The round, led by Fulgur Ventures, aims to expedite the construction of this trading market for the second half of 2025, having been previously licensed and authorized by Salvadoran authorities.
Michele Crivelli, CEO of Nexbridge and Nexplace, explained why El Salvador was the place chosen for this new platform. “We chose El Salvador because it offers legal certainty, openness to innovation, and a clear political will to become a next-generation financial center,” he stated.
Furthermore, weighing in on the responsibility of launching such a trailblazing service, he declared that they must “prove that digital assets can be issued securely and credibly from this country.”
The new company will offer access to bonds and equities, and even establish services to raise capital and issue token shares using bitcoin rails.
Crivelli acknowledged that building this kind of innovative proposal doesn’t happen overnight, but that El Salvador’s regulation provides the tools to “do it right.”
Stacy Herbert, Director of the National Bitcoin Office (ONBTC), stressed that this new development had the potential to turn El Salvador into a global, bitcoin-based financial hub.
She assessed:
Just as Switzerland once built its financial reputation on gold, El Salvador can do the same with Bitcoin—leveraging its brand, regulatory clarity, and leadership.
The milestone follows the launch of El Salvador’s Artificial Intelligence (AI) Lab, to be built using Nvidia’s technology.
