On 7 October, The Tax Authority of Brazil (Receita Federal do Brasil, or say RFB) published a report and noted that huge numbers of institutional investors in the crypto sector are increasing. 

The RFB reported that more than 12,000 companies registered as crypto holder companies, which is an increase from the 11,360 companies that declared in July 2022. But the opposite of this, in the same month, retail crypto holders plunged by 35,000. 

To this date, 1.3 million people officially registered with RFB that they are holding cryptocurrencies and this is itself a very big number, which is enough to show that the crypto adoption rate is very high in Brazil.
