Brazil’s B3 Doubles Down on Crypto: Ethereum and Solana Futures Incoming, Bitcoin Contracts Slimmed Down
B3—Brazil’s answer to Wall Street—just fired two shots across the bow of traditional finance. First: launching ETH and SOL futures to ride the altcoin wave. Second: slashing Bitcoin contract sizes to lure retail traders (because apparently, even institutional players need pocket change now).
The move screams mainstream adoption—or desperation for fee revenue, depending on who you ask. Either way, it’s a clear bet that Brazilians want more than just samba and soccer when it comes to speculative assets.
Bonus jab: Watch traditional brokers suddenly ’discover’ crypto’s potential—right after their clients start fleeing to defi platforms.
