### 1. The Phenomenon of the "Great Wealth Transfer"

* **Banking distrust:** Young people seek autonomy from systems they perceive as slow or with high fees.
* **Hedge against inflation:** In countries with volatile currencies, cryptocurrencies (and especially *stablecoins*) act as a "lifeboat" for wealth.
### 2. Why Peru and Colombia?
Both countries consistently lead adoption indexes in the region:

* **Peru:** It has shown explosive growth in digital financial education. A recent report indicates that **63% of Peruvian families** are already actively preparing their heirs, but they prefer to diversify into assets like **Bitcoin and ETFs** rather than traditional banking.
