Looks good. There are certainly rooms for more growth and it shows progressive adoption of bitcoin in other parts of the world. Hope to see the trend continues.

In a nutshell, trade volume was around US$ 16.7M/yr with a volume greater than 31K BTCs.

It may be a drop in the ocean compared to other markets (USD, EUR or China) but it shows signs of continual growth over the last 6 months.


Yeah and thats over a brutal year long bear market, imagine what the volume would be on an uptrend.

Thanks for sharing. Interesting read.

The volume is indeed very low, but that only means there's a lot of room for growth. Hope BTC will get some more attention.

Found some article from October explaining problems with adoption in Brazil:

I've created a report on the status of the Brazilian Market and it's largest exchanges.

In a nutshell, trade volume was around US$ 16.7M/yr with a volume greater than 31K BTCs.

It may be a drop in the ocean compared to other markets (USD, EUR or China) but it shows signs of continual growth over the last 6 months.
