The initiative reinforces the dissemination of technical knowledge in a growing market that today includes about 25 million Brazilians who own digital assets, according to Datafolha, and is aligned with another ANCORD initiative: the CCA Program – the 1st Crypto Certification in the financial market, launched in 2024 and open to the public at the beginning of this year.

With the incorporation of Mercado Bitcoin’s content into the PEC, advisors now have new content options that can help them fulfill the mandatory annual score, with the added benefit of double credits. The portfolio includes nine courses, ranging from “Introduction to Blockchain” to “Crypto Class”, as well as the free content “Introduction to Mercado Bitcoin”. All grant a certificate of completion with workload and signature.

For Henrique Pocai, Commercial Director of Mercado Bitcoin, the collaboration meets a growing demand for qualified training in the sector. “The digital asset market has been gaining relevance among investors, and the training of the professionals who serve them is an essential step to strengthen this ecosystem. By integrating our content into the PEC, we expand advisors’ access to reliable technical knowledge aligned with the country’s regulatory practices.”

Mercado Bitcoin’s operation in the B2B ecosystem brings together about 125 partner offices and more than 2000 registered advisors. In the digital investments segment, the company offers solutions such as digital fixed income, stablecoins, and tokenized assets. The company is also among the five largest credit tokenizers in the world according to rwa.xyz.

For ANCORD, an institution with over 50 years of experience and established as a reference in the Certification and Accreditation segment, the partnership adds content directly relevant to the daily lives of investment advisors.

The entity, which is responsible for accrediting more than 28,000 advisors and has already carried out more than 58,000 certifications, in addition to 1,000 students in the CCA Program, emphasizes that the curation of courses prioritizes topics that enhance professional performance and raise the quality of investor guidance.

By expanding access to specialized content on digital assets, the collaboration contributes to the responsible development of the sector in Brazil. Strengthening training tends to raise the standard of service, strengthen investor confidence, and consolidate a more structured environment in the long term.
