Brazil’s main stock exchange plans to roll out tokenization platform and stablecoin in 2026
Summary
Brazil's main stock exchange, B3, announced plans to launch a tokenization platform and a stablecoin in 2026 as part of a unified strategy for tokenized assets. Luiz Masagão, VP of Products and Clients at B3, stated that the tokenized assets on this new infrastructure will be fungible with traditional assets, allowing existing market liquidity to be utilized by token holders. B3 intends to foster an innovation ecosystem by providing access to protocols and SDKs for market participants to build new tokenized solutions. The planned B3 stablecoin is designed to meet market demand for security and independence, supporting liquidity and potential 24/7 trading within the tokenized framework, especially following the central bank's shift away from its initial Drex CBDC platform.
