    #179: BRL Stablecoin Deep Dive with Rodrigo Trindade of Iporanga Ventures

    Rodrigo Trindade is an investor at Iporanga Ventures. He joins host Aaron Stanley to discuss his comprehensive research on local stablecoin adoption across Brazil and Latin America. Rodrigo built his own tracking dashboard monitoring on-chain metrics including supply, holders, transaction volumes, and DeFi activity for regional stablecoins. He argues that while USD-denominated stablecoins will remain dominant globally, local currency stablecoins are essential infrastructure for building functional on-chain financial systems in Latin America, where users need to transact, borrow, and lend in their native currencies. Looking ahead, Rodrigo identifies credit and yield products as the next major opportunities in the space, emphasizing the need for better transparency through real-time proof of reserves and improved liquidity infrastructure. ------------------------------------------------------------------Brazil Crypto Report is presented by Avenia If you're building a wallet, a crypto consumer app, or a global payment platform, Avenia is your bridge to Latin America.

    #178: Can Crown Become the Circle of Brazil? with John Delaney

    John Delaney is CEO and co-founder of Crown. Crown recently raised a $13.5 million Series A round led by Paradigm and is the issuer of BRLV - Brazil's newest and stablecoin with over 360 million BRL subscribed. He joins host Aaron Stanley to discuss Crown's unique approach to capturing institutional flows in Brazil's high-yield environment - namely by letting BRLV holders earn native yield generated from the underlying reserves. The conversation explores BRLV's groundbreaking bankruptcy-remote reserve structure with perfected legal guarantees, making it the first stablecoin globally to implement such comprehensive security protections. Delaney shares insights on Brazil's position as a prime stablecoin market given its massive M2 money supply, crypto-friendly central bank, and positive real interest rates that outpace inflation. He outlines Crown's ambitious 10-year vision to achieve one trillion BRL in circulation, projecting stablecoins will represent high single-digit percentages of Brazil's money supply as financial infrastructure migrates on-chain.

    #177: No Place to Hide: Brazil's New Crypto Tax Regime with Thiago Barbosa

    Thiago Barbosa, partner at Salles Nogueira Advogados, joins host Aaron Stanley to break down the complex and rapidly evolving landscape of crypto asset taxation and regulation in Brazil. The discussion centers on the latest major developments from the Central Bank, which is introducing stricter requirements for Virtual Asset Service Providers, and the new Receita Federal reporting mechanism called "Decripto". Barbosa explains how these changes create an increasingly tight compliance net, particularly for retail investors who've historically operated in gray areas. He emphasizes that the IRS is investing heavily in surveillance technology to identify discrepancies between reported income and actual lifestyle spending, warning that the window for undeclared crypto wealth is rapidly closing as Brazil integrates into the global tax reporting infrastructure.

    #176: What's ACTUALLY Driving Stablecoin Adoption in Latam? With Justin Norman

    In this episode, host Aaron Stanley speaks with Justin Norman, founder of The Flip, a content creator and filmmaker who documents technology adoption in emerging markets. Justin shares insights from his recent Latin American research trip exploring stablecoin adoption, which resulted in a YouTube documentary series examining markets like Argentina and Bolivia. The conversation delves into the disconnect between Argentina's impressive stablecoin transaction volumes and the lack of visible retail adoption, revealing that stablecoins primarily serve as store-of-value tools and facilitate cross-border trade rather than everyday spending. Justin emphasizes the importance of understanding the macro conditions driving adoption, including dollar shortages, parallel exchange markets, and currency devaluation, rather than focusing solely on technology hype. He also draws compelling parallels between Latin American and African markets, noting how similar economic pressures create comparable crypto adoption patterns, while highlighting Latin America's superior payment infrastructure that enables more seamless on-ramps and off-ramps for stablecoin users.

    #175: Inside BRL1 - Brazil's Liquidity Layer with Thomaz Teixeira and Ben Reid

    Thomaz Teixeira, CEO of BRL1, and Ben Reid, Head of Stablecoins at Bitso, join host Aaron Stanley to discuss the BRL1 stablecoin project. BRL1 is a one-to-one Brazilian real-pegged token developed by a unique consortium of major crypto exchanges including Mercado Bitcoin, Bitso, Foxbit, and Cainvest. We explore how competitors joined forces to build shared infrastructure that reduces friction for market makers and liquidity providers moving value across global exchanges. Teixeira and Reid highlight BRL1's impressive early traction, with the token already ranking as the sixth or seventh highest-volume asset on Brazilian exchanges despite launching just months ago. We examine how the consortium model creates network effects that drive adoption, the growing interest from institutional market makers positioning for local currency stablecoins, and how BRL1 addresses interoperability challenges similar to those the now-shuttered Drex project aimed to solve.

    #174: Winners and Losers of Brazil’s New VASP Rules with Carlos Russo and Cesar Carvalho

    After three years of waiting, Brazil's central bank has finally released comprehensive VASP regulations. In this episode, Carlos Eduardo Russo (Bluegreen) and Cesar Carvalho (Baptista Luz Advogados) join host Aaron Stanley to break down the regulatory framework that will reshape Brazil's digital asset industry. We discuss the phased authorization process, capital requirements ranging from R$11-37 million, how stablecoins are now integrated into Brazil's FX market, and whether these rules truly level the playing field between local and international exchanges. Both guests have been deeply involved with AB Token's government affairs work and provide insider perspectives on what comes next for the industry.

    #173: Tokenized Credit: Brazil's Next Export with Paulo David of AmFi

    Paulo David is CEO of AmFi. He joins host Aaron Stanley to discuss how his platform is revolutionizing access to Brazilian private credit markets through asset tokenization. As a third-time entrepreneur who previously built and sold two major fintechs including Grafeno, Paulo brings deep expertise in Brazil's capital markets infrastructure. The conversation explores how Brazil's position as having the world's second-highest interest rates creates a unique opportunity to export this yield to global investors through blockchain technology. Paulo explains how AmFi is addressing critical market inefficiencies including lack of transparency, limited accessibility, and absence of secondary markets that have historically prevented foreign capital from entering Brazilian private credit. He also discusses the platform's expansion strategy targeting Southeast Asia and the Middle East, and how democratizing access to these high-yield instruments can ultimately reduce borrowing costs and improve credit access for Brazilian businesses. ------------------------------------------------------------------Brazil Crypto Report is presented by Avenia If you're building a wallet, a crypto consumer app, or a global payment platform, Avenia is your bridge to Latin America.

    #172: Brazil's Oranje Pill with Gui Gomes

    Gui Gomes, CEO of OranjeBTC, joins host Aaron Stanley to discuss his company's mission to become Latin America's leading Bitcoin adoption catalyst following their recent listing on Brazil's B3 exchange. Gomes brings a unique perspective shaped by his time at Bridgewater Associates, where working alongside Ray Dalio on global economic power shifts crystallized his conviction that Bitcoin represents the future of reserve currencies. He outlines OranjeBTC's dual mandate: building the region's largest Bitcoin treasury while delivering comprehensive education to investors at all levels. The company is actively accumulating Bitcoin through weekly purchases and exploring various capital instruments to grow their holdings, similar to strategies pioneered by MicroStrategy. Gomes shares his vision for Brazil's potential as an early Bitcoin adopter among major economies, arguing that the country's 215 million people could set a transformative example for emerging markets navigating the transition toward digital, decentralized monetary systems.
