Dear leaders and entrepreneurs in the Blockchain sector,
We are very excited to share with you a comprehensive analysis of the Brazilian blockchain market, highlighting the incredible growth potential and opportunities that exist here.
Despite going through an unfavorable macroeconomic scenario in the recent years, 2023 can be highlighted as the year of recovery for the global crypto and blockchain scene. The market ended the last year with a capitalization of $1.66 trillion, driven by a series of factors that permeate areas like investment, development, innovation and regulation.
Data from the _State of Crypto Index report by “a16z crypto”, shows that adoption and development in the so-called “WEB3” ecosystems in general has reached historic levels. The number of active addresses has risen substantially, and a similar movement is taking place with the increase in the number of developers, while the main blockchain infrastructures are improving their architectures and solutions at the same time as the financial sector is actively seeking WEB3 developers.
In this scenario, Brazil is an important player for adoption and development on the global stage. With a population of 212 million people and crypto adoption already reaching 17 million users, which represents 8.3% of the population. Brazil is now the epicenter of fintechs linked to the cryptoasset sector in Latin America, offering a robust ecosystem of companies involved in verticals such as issuance, intermediation, payments, trading and infrastructure, among a huge list of other services related to the topic.
