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.

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.

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.
