Brazil’s B3 plans RWA tokenization, a BRL stablecoin and Bitcoin, ETH, SOL options to link digital assets with the country’s stock market infrastructure.
Summary
- B3 will launch a tokenization platform for real-world assets, starting with tokenized equities integrated into its existing exchange infrastructure.
- The exchange plans a real-pegged stablecoin for on-chain clearing and settlement, alongside proposed weekly BTC, ETH, and SOL options pending CVM approval.
- The move follows Brazil’s narrowed Drex pilot, positioning B3’s blockchain rails as an extension of the traditional market rather than a separate crypto venue.
Brazil’s stock exchange B3 plans to launch a tokenization platform and a Brazilian real-pegged stablecoin by 2026, according to the exchange’s announced initiative to integrate blockchain technology into the country’s financial infrastructure.
The tokenization platform will support real-world assets, with tokenized equities expected to be the initial focus, according to the exchange. The platform will allow assets to be issued and traded on-chain while remaining connected to B3’s existing market infrastructure, the exchange stated.
B3 and the Bitcoin pivot in Brazil
The system is designed to share liquidity with traditional markets and enable settlement while reducing fragmentation between on-chain and off-chain trading venues, B3 reported. The exchange indicated the platform represents a foundational step toward supporting extended or continuous trading hours.
B3 plans to issue a stablecoin pegged to the Brazilian real to support clearing and settlement on the tokenization platform, according to the announcement. The stablecoin is designed to streamline settlement processes and reduce reliance on cash-based mechanisms, the exchange stated.
The initiative follows the Central Bank of Brazil’s decision to narrow the scope of its Drex digital real project, creating space for private-sector alternatives to support tokenized finance, according to the exchange.
B3 is also developing weekly options contracts tied to Bitcoin (BTC), Ethereum (ETH), and Solana (SOL), which are currently under review by Brazil’s Securities and Exchange Commission (CVM), the exchange reported. If approved, the products would expand B3’s crypto-related instruments within a regulated exchange environment.
The tokenization platform, stablecoin, and expanded derivatives offerings represent B3’s effort to integrate digital assets with Brazil’s established financial system, according to the exchange. The exchange is positioning blockchain as an extension of its existing market structure rather than operating as a separate crypto venue.

The New York Times reignites the “Satoshi identity mystery”; after Adam Back was targeted, he quickly clarified

Satoshi Nakamoto’s real identity remains the mystery that has continued for 17 years in the crypto world. Guesses surrounding this pseudonym have never stopped—candidates ranging from cryptographers to company founders have come and gone, yet there has always been a lack of decisive evidence.
Recently, The New York Times published a 10,000-plus-word investigation. Based on multiple comparisons drawn from language style, technical paths, and historical context, it ranked Blockstream CEO Adam Back as the strongest candidate for Satoshi Nakamoto. However, this claim was quickly and explicitly denied by Back himself, and the relevant arguments were widely questioned by the industry as difficult to substantiate.
