Brazilian firm OranjeBTC, which holds Bitcoin as its primary corporate asset, began trading on Brazil’s B3 stock exchange this week. Entering the market with 3,675 bitcoin—valued at roughly $444 million—OranjeBTC instantly became Latin America’s largest listed Bitcoin treasury.
The debut has drawn wide attention across Latin America’s financial markets, where investors closely monitor whether digital assets can deliver sustainable value within regulated exchanges.

OranjeBTC went public through a reverse merger with education firm Intergraus, gaining faster access to trading under ticker OBTC3. The company officially listed on Tuesday, marking Brazil’s first public debut of a firm whose business model centers entirely on Bitcoin accumulation as a corporate strategy—similar to US pioneer MicroStrategy.
The stock of OranjeBTC opened at $4.35 (23.22 BRL) and saw an early surge, reaching an intraday high of $4.59 (24.50 BRL) as investors reacted to the historic listing. However, momentum faded through the afternoon, and shares closed near their session low at $4.33 (23.15 BRL), reflecting early profit-taking after the initial excitement.
The company’s investor lineup underscores its credibility. OranjeBTC secured $210 million in financing led by Itaú BBA, the investment arm of Brazil’s largest bank. It also counts among its backers Cameron and Tyler Winklevoss, founders of Gemini; Adam Back, CEO of Blockstream; Ricardo Salinas, Mexican billionaire and owner of Banco Azteca; FalconX, a major digital-asset brokerage; and ParaFi Capital, a US crypto-focused investment firm.
OranjeBTC also announced a strategic partnership with BitcoinTreasuries.net, the world’s leading data platform for corporate Bitcoin holdings and market intelligence. The collaboration aims to enhance transparency and expand OranjeBTC’s global investor reach.

“Our mission at Oranje is to accelerate the adoption of Bitcoin for corporate treasury and empower Latin American investors through education,” said Guilherme Gomes, CEO of Oranje.
According to BitcoinTreasuries.net, OranjeBTC ranks 26th globally among public companies by Bitcoin holdings (3,675 BTC), highlighting its growing international presence.
Regional Appetite for Crypto Innovation
OranjeBTC’s listing comes as Latin America strengthens its position among the world’s fastest-growing crypto regions. According to the Chainalysis 2025 Geography of Cryptocurrency Report, adoption in the region climbed 63% over the past year, driven by major markets including Brazil, Argentina, and Mexico.
“This is a moment of discovery,” said Guilherme Gomes, OranjeBTC’s founder and CEO. “We want people to understand Bitcoin not as speculation but as a fundamental form of money.”
The company plans to launch an education platform to teach investors about Bitcoin’s monetary design and long-term role in the global economy. Analysts believe that growing transparency and literacy could accelerate mainstream acceptance of digital assets.
Still, experts caution that Bitcoin’s volatility and uneven regulation may test investor patience. Even so, OranjeBTC’s entry has injected momentum into Latin America’s evolving digital-finance landscape — a sign that curiosity across the region is fast turning into conviction.
