Nubank and Mercado Pago Suspend Crypto Transfers: One Vendor Froze Three Countries

Two of Latin America’s biggest fintechs hit pause on crypto today. Nubank suspended crypto deposits and withdrawals, and Mercado Pago blocked part of its transfers to external wallets. Both blamed an outside provider. Both said user assets are safe. Here is the short version. Nubank and Mercado Pago suspended crypto transfers on November 6, 2026 after a third-party vendor failed. Buying and selling inside the apps still works. Moving coins in or out does not. Nobody has said when it comes back. I live in Mexico, where Mercado Pago is everywhere, and the outage reached here too.
