Bogota, Colombia, September 9, 2026 – With two major Colombian financial institutions onboarded — including state-owned Banco Agrario — more than $500 million in processed volume, and a target of up to $10 million in daily transactions with Financiera Juriscoop, KiiChain is expanding its institutional FX and settlement footprint across Latin America. 

KiiChain is expanding its institutional footprint in Colombia through two new agreements that place its 24/7 foreign exchange and settlement infrastructure underneath regulated Colombian financial institutions, including state-owned Banco Agrario de Colombia.

The first is a partnership with Financiera Juriscoop, a regulated Colombian financial institution with more than 40 years in the market. Juriscoop brings institutional Colombian peso liquidity onto KiiChain’s FX rails, creating a foundation for currency execution and settlement outside traditional banking hours. The two are targeting up to $10 million in daily transaction volume as the integration scales.

The second names KiiChain as an infrastructure provider for a joint initiative between Banco Agrario de Colombia, the country’s state-owned agrarian bank, and Merke Plaza. Banco Agrario holds the banking relationship, custody of funds, and compliance controls.

Merke Plaza is digitizing Colombia’s plazas de mercado, the traditional market halls that anchor commerce in cities and small towns alike. KiiChain provides the settlement, transaction data, and cross-border FX infrastructure behind the banking, microcredit, and remittance services offered to vendors across that network.

Both agreements follow the same approach: sit beneath existing institutions rather than ask them, or their customers, to rebuild around new technology. Banks keep their customer relationships, compliance processes, treasury operations, and products. KiiChain runs the rails underneath.

That position also opens a wider door. Merke Plaza operates within a broader financial ecosystem that includes relationships with Bancolombia, Davivienda, Banco Pichincha, and Coopcentral. Their participation in the broader network creates a path for KiiChain to pursue further integrations as it deepens local-currency liquidity and opens new FX corridors.

“We didn’t build KiiChain to sit outside the financial system. We built it to become infrastructure for it,” said Danyel Arenas, CEO and Co-Founder of KiiChain. “We already have banks in three countries running live volume through our rails. Colombia shows how we scale from here. Our work with Juriscoop and Banco Agrario gives us a foundation to pursue integrations across a broader banking network, including institutions such as Bancolombia, Davivienda, Banco Pichincha, and Coopcentral. More institutions, more local liquidity, more corridors connected through the same infrastructure.”

At the center of that infrastructure is KiiChain’s Atomic Quote Network (AQN), which brings the request-for-quote model long used in institutional FX into an always-on settlement environment. Liquidity providers issue cryptographically signed, time-bound quotes that fix rates and execution conditions before settlement, producing an auditable record without requiring institutions to restructure how they operate.

The Colombia agreements build on KiiChain’s broader infrastructure expansion, including its August integration with the TRON network, which connected KiiChain’s FX rails to one of the world’s largest stablecoin settlement networks. The strategy across these integrations is consistent: connect liquidity and settlement networks on one side with regulated institutions and real financial activity on the other.

With more than $500 million in processed volume, 200 enterprise clients, and 360,000 registered users, KiiChain is now moving from proving its rails to scaling them across more financial institutions, local currencies, and FX corridors throughout Latin America and other emerging markets.
