Bitcoin Magazine published an interview with OranjeBTC CEO Gui Gomes describing how the company is replicating MicroStrategy's Bitcoin treasury playbook in Brazil. Gomes argues Brazil ranks first globally in grassroots Bitcoin adoption and benefits from new VASP licensing rules, a pro-market political shift, and falling interest rates. The company offers shares to global investors and has launched DIGI11, which brings STRC and SATA products to Brazilian investors and reportedly paid its first dividend. OranjeBTC also executed what it calls Brazil's first Bitcoin-backed loan, positioning Bitcoin as collateral for digital credit.
