Scaling in Brazil: Our New Entity Launch
Scaling in Brazil: Our New Entity Launch
Keyrock’s off to a fast start in 2026 as we continue to strengthen our partnerships, advance our offering, and support more clients as an architect of the digital asset future. To that end, we’re proud to announce the launch of a new entity in Brazil.
We originally entered the market during 2025, recognising the massive opportunity for a trusted name with sophisticated tech infrastructure. Having witnessed strong demand from local customers for access to advanced institutional products, we’re cementing our presence and offering deeper support with the new local entity.
“Brazil’s commercial strength and regulatory clarity make it an attractive market for an ambitious crypto firm like Keyrock,” commented Robert Valdes-Rodriguez, Chief Commercial Officer at Keyrock. “We relish the opportunity to scale in the market as we help meet demand for digital assets and support the country’s growing ecosystem.”
Unlocking fresh opportunities
Demand is rising among Brazilian institutions for deep liquidity, reliable execution, and fast settlement. That’s because crypto assets are increasingly showing their utility. Stablecoins represent more than 90% of all crypto transaction flows in Brazil, being the backbone of payments, FX substitution, and cross-border settlement.
Keyrock is in the country to meet this demand through our proven, multi-service offering. For Brazil, that initially includes OTC liquidity in BRL pairs and market making. Crucially, our new entity will meet the country’s recently established VASP regulations, giving institutions access to a trusted counterparty.
Brazil’s leadership
The South American nation is a natural fit for our global ambitions, being the largest market for digital asset adoption in LATAM and among the top five worldwide. Brazilian users transacted more than USD$300 billion in crypto assets between 2024 and 2025 — a figure that represents triple-digit year-on-year growth.
With deep experience providing liquidity and market access to institutions through a tailored approach, Keyrock is well placed to help support Brazil’s ambitions for digital assets.
