Leveraging Regenerative Finance, Real World Assets, and
In the past two months, we’ve embarked on a journey of discovery through three focused research initiatives. Our aim: to unveil potential pathways for blockchain solutions in Latin America that benefit the communities, economies, and ecosystems within this vibrant region.
This exploration has been made possible thanks to the dedicated work of three teams, our Research Grantees, namely; Bamba Labs, Kairos Research (with support from Verber Souza of ReFaz), and the combined efforts of DeTrash and Floristic.
Each team has brought unique insights into Regenerative Finance, Real World Asset tokenization, and the growing use of stablecoins in Latin America and Brazil. Bamba Labs shed light on the transformative potential of stablecoins for financial inclusion, while Kairos Research explored the growing landscape of tokenizing real-world assets—especially relevant given Latin America’s rich resources. DeTrash and Floristic mapped the possibilities for Regenerative Finance (ReFi) in Latin America, revealing ways blockchain can support environmental and social regeneration.
This summary reflects the opportunities these findings open for the Ethereum, Superchain, and Celo communities, highlighting the immense potential for positive impact and mutual growth in the region.
Some of the key findings are:
