Brazil currently has more people investing in bitcoin and other digital assets than in the U.S. stock market.

The congressman also highlighted the emergence of a number of technologies that have the potential to reduce the role of the state through decentralization. “The trend is that we will follow the path of increasing decentralization ... It is what some people vulgarly call uberization ... But there is a phenomenon behind that which is the phenomenon of decentralization, the decentralization of choices.”
Bitcoin is a hope for Brazil, for Latin America, and for people around the world.
