According to Foresight News, Brazil's B3 exchange has received permission from the country's securities regulator to offer Bitcoin futures. Trading is scheduled to begin on April 17th. The Bitcoin futures will be linked to the Nasdaq Bitcoin reference price, with each contract set at 10% of the Bitcoin price in Brazilian reais. The futures contracts will use financial settlement methods, without the actual trading of Bitcoin. However, the company has stated that the official launch date may still change.
