OranjeBTC to Debut on Brazil\u2019s B3, Bringing $410 Million in Bitcoin to Public Markets<\/a><\/p>\n

<\/div>\n

Brazil is about to see something new on its stock exchange: a company going public not for its products, but for its bitcoin.\u00a0<\/p>\n

OranjeBTC, founded by former Bridgewater Associates executive Guilherme Gomes, will list on B3 in early October carrying 3,650 BTC on its balance sheet \u2014 worth more than $410 million.<\/p>\n

That instantly puts Oranje in the global top tier of corporate bitcoin treasuries. By comparison, Brazilian fintech M\u00e9liuz, which followed<\/a> Strategy\u2019s model last year, holds just 650 BTC. Oranje is nearly six times larger out of the gate, according<\/a> to Brazil Journal<\/em>.<\/p>\n

The firm is not shy about its intentions. \u201cWe are bringing to Latin America the first publicly traded company 100% focused on bitcoin, with the goal of accumulating the largest possible bitcoin balance,\u201d Gomes said.\u00a0<\/p>\n

Earlier this year, Ita\u00fa BBA\u2019s investment arm began advising<\/a> OranjeBTC on a $210 million deal, aimed at establishing the company\u2019s Bitcoin holdings as a long-term strategic reserve.<\/p>\n

B3 is a stock exchange located in S\u00e3o Paulo, Brazil, and the second oldest in the country. Back in 2022, the exchange launched<\/a> bitcoin futures within six months while also exploring crypto custody services.<\/p>\n

Bitcoin adoption in Brazil<\/h2>\n

Oranje\u2019s arrival marks a direct import of the playbook pioneered by Strategy\u2019s Michael Saylor<\/a>, who turned a sleepy software company into the largest bitcoin holder in the world with 640,000 BTC.\u00a0<\/p>\n

Saylor had a mentor in the early days: Eric Weiss, a former Morgan Stanley banker who now sits on Oranje\u2019s board.<\/p>\n

Backing for the company has also come from across the global Bitcoin ecosystem. Investors include the Winklevoss twins, Blockstream\u2019s Adam Back, FalconX, Mexican billionaire Ricardo Salinas, and U.S. funds Off the Chain Capital and ParaFi Capital. It\u2019s a roster designed to project both credibility and conviction.<\/p>\n

The mechanics of the listing will follow a reverse IPO, with Oranje merging into Intergraus, already listed on B3.<\/p>\n

After the transaction, about 85% of shares will be in free float\u2014opening the door for both institutional and retail investors to gain direct exposure to a company whose only real product is bitcoin accumulation.<\/p>\n

Bitcoin adoption in Latin America has mostly come from individuals, remittances, and startups. Oranje stands apart as a pure treasury vehicle\u2014built for scale, transparency, and institutional capital.\u00a0<\/p>\n

By listing as a public company, it offers investors a traditional-market gateway to bitcoin exposure. For Gomes, the opportunity is still wide open.\u00a0<\/p>\n

\u201cMichael Saylor recently said that this investment model effectively began in November of last year,\u201d he noted per Brazil Journa<\/em>l \u201cWe\u2019ll soon see banks and insurance companies doing the same. It\u2019s the beginning of a new industry. In all of Latin America, there\u2019s still no company 100% focused on this.\u201d<\/p>\n
