Valour Brings Solana ETP to Brazil’s B3 Exchange Market Hub
- Valour adds a Solana ETP to Brazil’s B3, expanding regulated crypto access beyond Europe.
- Trading starts December 17, 2025, letting Brazilian investors access Solana via brokers.
- The listing marks Valour’s first major move outside Europe into Latin America’s market.
Valour will launch its Solana exchange-traded product on Brazil’s main stock exchange, B3, expanding regulated crypto access in Latin America. The product will begin trading on December 17, 2025, according to an announcement from parent firm DeFi Technologies.
The listing marks Valour’s first Solana-linked product in Brazil and adds to its growing local crypto lineup. Brazilian investors will access Solana exposure through familiar brokerage accounts using the local currency.
The approval places Solana alongside Bitcoin, Ethereum, XRP, and Sui products already cleared for B3 trading. Together, these listings deepen Valour’s footprint in Latin America’s largest financial market. They also signal continued demand for regulated digital asset products in Brazil.
DeFi Technologies confirmed the approval through its ETP subsidiary Valour on Tuesday.
The company trades on Nasdaq under the ticker DEFT and focuses on digital asset management. Valour issues exchange-traded products that track individual cryptocurrencies. Most of its offerings currently trade on European exchanges.
Solana joins Valour’s Brazil-listed crypto products
The Solana ETP will trade under the ticker VSOL on B3. It will offer Brazilian real-denominated exposure to the Solana network’s native token. Investors will not need to manage wallets or private keys. Instead, they can gain exposure through traditional market infrastructure.
Valour already secured approval for four other crypto ETPs in Brazil. Those products track Bitcoin, Ethereum, XRP, and Sui. All five products will begin trading on the same date. B3 will handle pricing, clearing, and settlement locally.
DeFi Technologies said Brazil represents its first major market outside Europe. Valour currently offers nearly 100 digital asset ETPs across European venues. These include listings on the London Stock Exchange and SIX Swiss Exchange. The Brazil launch marks a key geographic expansion step.
Johan Wattenström, Valour’s co-founder and chief executive, addressed the approval in a statement. He described the Solana listing as a natural extension of earlier B3 approvals. He also pointed to Solana’s expanding developer and user ecosystem.
Company president Andrew Forson also commented on the move. He said demand for diversified crypto ETPs continues to grow in Brazil. He noted that Solana features prominently in investor interest.
Brazil anchors Valour’s expansion beyond Europe
Brazil has emerged as Latin America’s largest crypto economy. Hundreds of billions of dollars in crypto transactions flow through the country each year. Local regulators have supported structured and transparent crypto investment products. This environment has attracted global digital asset firms.
Valour’s B3 products target institutions and qualified investors. They provide regulated exposure without direct interaction with blockchain networks. This structure appeals to investors seeking compliance and operational simplicity.
DeFi Technologies views Brazil as a strategic entry point. The company plans further expansion across Latin America. It also targets growth in Africa, the Middle East, and Asia. Developing markets remain central to its long-term strategy.

The Brazil expansion comes alongside broader corporate developments. DeFi Technologies reported third-quarter revenue of $22.5 million. That figure declined from $28.1 million a year earlier. Operating income also fell year over year to $9 million.
Despite the decline, DeFi continues to expand operationally. Its arbitrage desk, DeFi Alpha, executed a trade generating $3.2 million. The company expects to report that gain in fourth-quarter results.
DeFi also plans to launch Brazilian Depositary Receipts on B3. The BDRs will give Brazilian institutions exposure to DeFi Technologies shares. Trading for the BDRs will also begin on December 17, 2025.
Outside Brazil, DeFi’s venture portfolio continues to grow. In Canada, Stablecorp received approval for the QCAD stablecoin. Regulators recognized QCAD as the country’s first compliant Canadian dollar stablecoin. Together, these moves highlight DeFi Technologies’ expanding global presence.
