According to Decrypt, Brazil's main stock exchange B3 plans to launch a night trading session later this year, including Bitcoin ETFs and Ibovespa futures. The move will extend trading hours to 9:45 pm local time (12:45 am London time, 7:45 pm New York time) to meet the growing demand of individual investors for more flexible trading options. In addition to Bitcoin, B3 will also open trading in the Ibovespa ETF, an index similar to the S&P 500 in the United States. Brazil has been at the forefront of embracing cryptocurrencies and is the country with the most cryptocurrency ETFs in the Americas. Brazil's first cryptocurrency ETF HASH11 was approved in 2021, setting a precedent for the region. In contrast, the United States did not approve the first spot Bitcoin ETF until January 2023, and there are currently no applications for spot cryptocurrency ETFs involving other cryptocurrencies.
