#Bitpanda steps on the gas in Brazil: The future of finance in Latin America

The European giant Bitpanda is fully launching to conquer Brazil, a country it considers key for the next era of digital finance. In an exclusive interview conducted by Mohammad Shahid, the company's CEO, Lukas Enzersdorfer-Konrad, reveals a strategic plan for the country, highlighting its young population and solid regulatory framework as the perfect catalysts for the adoption of digital assets.

Bitpanda's Bet: More than Trading

Bitpanda does not see Brazil merely as a trading market. The company's vision focuses on the future of decentralized finance (DeFi), tokenized assets, and stablecoins. Through its Bitpanda Technology Solutions (BTS) platform, the company already enables large European banks, such as Deutsche Bank, to offer secure and regulated access to cryptocurrencies. This partnership strategy is the fast track for traditional institutions to join the digital revolution.

Long-term Vision Innovation

The recent creation of Vision, Bitpanda's Web3 token, aims to make the on-chain economy more practical and accessible. By connecting real-world assets, staking, and loyalty in a transparent ecosystem, Bitpanda wants to lead the next phase of digital finance with tools that people will actually use. Although there is still no launch date for its DeFi wallet in Brazil, the company's interest in the market is clear, promising a bright future for digital finance in the region.

Women Investing in Crypto: Slow but Steady!

A survey from #Bitpanda of 1,400 investors reveals that women approach crypto with a longer-term vision than men:

📌 49% plan to hold assets for up to 5 years, 39% even longer

📌 Trade less than men, avoiding getting swept up by FOMO

📌 30% of women choose Bitcoin, higher than men (24%)

However, barriers still exist:

⚠️ 81% admit to lacking experience

⚠️ 24% face difficulties due to a lack of knowledge

⚠️ Only 26% of crypto holders are women

🔎 Insights:

Data shows that women have a more cautious and long-term investment strategy in crypto. However, the knowledge barrier remains a significant obstacle, opening up opportunities for financial education platforms to help them participate in the market more strongly. 🚀 #anhbacong

🔥🔥🔥 #charleshoskinson Votes #Ethereum , But Cardano Wins Poll

Cardano and Ethereum, two of the leading blockchain platforms, continue to be at the center of debate within the #Cryptocommunity . A recent poll by #bitpanda Global asked users to choose between these platforms, drawing significant attention, especially with the involvement of prominent industry figures.

Cardano is celebrated for its secure and scalable approach to smart contracts and decentralized applications, often seen as a research-driven alternative to Ethereum. On the other hand, Ethereum, with its early-mover advantage and widespread adoption, has long been the dominant platform for developers.
The poll results, however, revealed an unexpected trend.

Despite Ethereum's established presence, a notable 80.4% of participants voted in favor of Cardano, while only 19.6% chose Ethereum. This overwhelming support for Cardano reflects a strong belief in its potential to compete with Ethereum.

The poll, which received over 2,500 votes, still had 22 hours left before the final count. Adding an interesting twist, Charles Hoskinson, the founder of Cardano, retweeted the poll but surprisingly cast his vote for Ethereum. Hoskinson’s endorsement of Ethereum sparked further discussions within the crypto community, highlighting his acknowledgment of Ethereum's strengths despite leading Cardano’s development.

Hoskinson's participation significantly boosted the poll’s visibility, intensifying the ongoing rivalry between the two platforms. #Cardano’s substantial lead in the poll suggests that many users view it as having better prospects for the future, even in light of Hoskinson’s unexpected vote for Ethereum.
