Plenti: Empowering Colombians to safeguard against devaluation with a US$165K boost
Plenti is the Colombian platform addressing devaluation challenges head-on. Plenti offers innovative and traditional payment buttons, allowing users to purchase USDT dollars starting from $1.
In a world of economic uncertainty, finding stability in a more resilient currency has become a challenge, especially in Latin America. Recognizing this need, Sebastián Correa, CEO of Plenti, comments, "Accessing dollar-denominated financial services should be simple in a globalized world. Unfortunately, this is not the case in Latin America".
Driven by their own struggles to open a dollar account due to complexity and high capital requirements, Sebastian and Nicolás began exploring the Colombian market and the potential for dollarization. Their research revealed a startling fact: over the past four years, the Colombian peso has experienced a devaluation of 40%, making it the eighth most devalued currency globally. Additionally, 98% of Colombians are unable to open a dollar-denominated bank account, rendering cash dollars useless in local markets. This realization sparked their vision to create an accessible, user-friendly, and secure digital wallet for USDT dollars.
