Brazil's B3 exchange to launch tokenization platform, stablecoin in 2026

Brazil's stock exchange, B3, plans to launch a tokenization platform and a proprietary stablecoin next year, CoinDesk reported. The platform is designed to enhance asset management efficiency by sharing liquidity with traditional financial markets. To support the settlement and clearing of these tokenized assets, B3 will issue a stablecoin pegged to the Brazilian real. The exchange is also developing crypto derivatives, including options for BTC, ETH, and SOL, as well as contracts based on cryptocurrency price volatility.
