The country's market is booming, and if Polkadot wants to seize this opportunity to expand its presence the time is now. Large entities like NuBank and the Government of Rio de Janeiro are exploring blockchain solutions in Brazil with Polygon and Solana.

Brazil's digital landscape, with high mobile and internet usage, makes it an ideal market for blockchain adoption.

Three businesses may seem low, but they are of high quality and often lead to more projects. We believe a bounty is the best approach, as it rewards success and aligns with Polkadot's decentralized nature. We have the experience and local connections to make this initiative successful. While a global initiative was considered, regional focus allows for quicker action. Blockchain adoption in Brazil is on the rise And we are considering the recently announced resources from the Web3 Foundation.
