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.
Backed by Global Crypto HeavyweightsOranjeBTC 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.
We’re officially public.
