Some numbers:

internet users: ~50% but just 25% @ home (cybercafes are really popular)

Not anymore. I think because of widespread adoption of smarthphones, cybercafes are no longer popular as they used to be 4 years ago.

The main problem for adoption in Argentina I think is the lack of exchange service other than localbitcoin. People need somewhere to throw their pesos at and get btc easily. Huge business oportunity that nobody took yet, I can't understand why.

I have read about a bitcoin ATM in Uruguay. I wonder what the border crossing rules are between those two countries. Seems like it would be pretty easy for someone to go across from Buenos Aires to Montevideo and back to get bitcoin.
