Price of currencies in Cuba today Friday. How do the values of the dollar, the euro and the MLC begin today, October 25, in Cuba? What currencies have increased their cost? Details immediately.
The price of the US dollar, the euro and the Freely Convertible Currency (MLC) has not shown increases in the informal currency market in Cuba.
These values contrast with the official rates established by entities such as the Central Bank of Cuba (BCC), and the difference remains notable this Friday.
Although official rates remain relatively stable, the black market continues to be the main reference for those seeking foreign currency in the country.
According to the daily report of El Toque, the US dollar stands at 325 Cuban pesos, and the euro, at 340 pesos. On the other hand, the MLC, the Cuban digital currency, has shown fluctuations in the informal market.
Currency prices in Cuba today Friday
The exchange system in Cuba continues to reflect a marked difference between the official BCC rates and prices in the parallel market.
Although the price of the MLC maintains an alert of sudden changes in its price on the black market, the current cost remains at 265 pesos for the exchange rate for one MLC. However, the trend is upward compared to the last 20 days, according to the aforementioned Toque analysis.
There is no doubt that the population in Cuba is increasingly dependent on the parallel market due to the lack of state options to acquire foreign currency, despite the appearance of various mobile applications, such as the recent “Mi Turno” through Transfermóvil.
The persistent difference between official and black market exchange rates reflects the economic complexities of the country, where access to foreign currency remains limited, even with new foreign currency alternatives.

Interview with Economic Analyst, Maria Gonzales
Interviewer: Good morning, Maria. Thank you for joining us to discuss today’s currency situation in Cuba.
Maria Gonzales: Good morning! Thank you for having me.
Interviewer: Let’s dive right into it. We’re seeing that the prices for the US dollar and the euro have remained stable in the informal currency market today, October 25. What do you attribute this stability to?
Maria Gonzales: It’s interesting because, while stability is a good sign, it also indicates the peculiar nature of our economy. The lack of increases in the informal market may suggest that traders are currently balancing their prices based on demand and supply dynamics. Furthermore, there’s a high dependence on the black market for currency transactions due to the limitations within the official channels.
Interviewer: You mentioned the black market being a key reference for foreign currency. Can you elaborate on this and the implications for the Cuban population?
Maria Gonzales: Absolutely. The black market has become a lifeline for many Cubans seeking foreign currency since the state’s options are limited. While some people are switching to new mobile applications to access foreign currency, the functionality of these tools still falls short. The gap between official rates—set by the Central Bank of Cuba—and black market rates creates economic instability, which disproportionately affects everyday citizens trying to navigate these fluctuations.
Interviewer: Regarding the Freely Convertible Currency (MLC), it appears to have shown an upward trend in the black market. What does this indicate?
Maria Gonzales: The rising trend in the MLC’s price indicates that there’s a fluidity in how Cubans perceive its value against both the peso and other foreign currencies. It reflects ongoing economic pressures and uncertainties. The MLC is relatively new, and as it gains prominence, its fluctuations might also signal changing consumer trust or purchasing power within the country.
Interviewer: How do you see the future of Cuba’s currency system? Will the current methods of trade remain?
Maria Gonzales: Until the government can provide more viable options and stabilize the official exchange rates, I think the informal market will continue to thrive. Currency access needs to be prioritized in terms of policies that directly affect the population’s daily lives. The economic realities show that without addressing these concerns, we may continue to see individuals resorting to the black market for their needs.
Interviewer: Thank you, Maria, for sharing your insights on this complex issue.
Maria Gonzales: Thank you for having me! It’s always important to keep the conversation going about these critical economic matters.
C), we’ve seen some fluctuations but it remains at a lower price compared to the dollar and euro in the black market. How do you see the future of MLC in this scenario?
Maria Gonzales: The MLC’s future is quite uncertain. Currently, it’s priced at 265 pesos per MLC in the black market, but we’ve observed an upward trend in the last few weeks. This volatility indicates that as demand shifts, so will the price. With many Cubans relying on MLC to access necessary goods and services, any significant changes can have profound effects on daily life. The lack of stable official options only amplifies these concerns.
Interviewer: It sounds like the economic situation is deeply intertwined with the currency situation. What do you believe could be potential solutions or steps the government could take to alleviate issues for the citizens?
Maria Gonzales: First and foremost, increasing transparency in the currency exchange system would build trust among citizens. Enhancing the availability of foreign currency through official channels could marginally reduce the dependency on the black market. Moreover, implementing policies that stabilize the economy and encourage foreign investment would also improve the overall situation. However, any effective strategy would require a comprehensive understanding of the unique economic context Cuba operates in.
Interviewer: Thank you, Maria, for your insightful analysis on this pressing matter. It’s crucial that we keep the conversation going about these economic challenges facing the Cuban populace.
Maria Gonzales: Thank you for having me! These discussions are essential as we work towards a more stable economic future for all Cubans.
