The new service will be available to the brokerage’s clients starting Monday, (19). Initially, the brokerage’s investors will have access to the 10 most traded crypto assets in the global market, with a minimum investment of R$100.

Among the new assets integrated into the portfolio are: Bitcoin (BTC), Ethereum (ETH), Solana (SOL), Cardano (ADA), Avalanche (AVAX), Polkadot (DOT), Chainlink (LINK), and Ripple (XRP), as well as two dollar-pegged stablecoins — USDT, issued by the global company Tether, and USDC, from American Circle.

“The launch of crypto operations at Ativa marks a new chapter in our 42-year history as a brokerage. We combine the solidity of traditional products like stocks, funds, and fixed income with innovation in the digital universe, reinforcing our commitment to offering comprehensive and secure solutions for both traditional and modern investors,” says Thiago Leiras, CTO of Ativa.

The partnership connects the digital assets platform infrastructure to Ativa Investments’ operations through a crypto as a service solution, which allows integrating crypto resources into the brokerage’s services in a simplified manner. “Mercado Bitcoin enables us to offer our clients a safe and intuitive entry point into the digital assets universe. We wanted an experienced partner with a solid reputation, capable of complementing our strategy to deliver an increasingly complete portfolio that meets the new demands of investors,” Leiras comments.

Guilherme Pimentel, Product Director of Mercado Bitcoin Exchange, emphasizes that the partnership represents the union between the traditional financial market and the digital assets universe, especially in a scenario where 1 in 4 Brazilians already invests in digital assets. The platform itself predicts that by 2030, half of the population will adopt this type of investment. “By combining MB’s operational strength, built over twelve years, with Ativa Investments’ tradition, we reinforce the relevance of the crypto ecosystem in investors’ portfolios and daily lives,” he says.

Leiras from Ativa highlights that the arrival of crypto assets opens doors for new digital offerings in the future and occurs at a time of regulatory progress in the country. “With regulation, everyone is on the same page, with clearer definitions and responsibilities regarding the use of this asset category,” he states.
