Brazil’s cryptocurrency market has experienced strong growth in 2025, with total trading activity increasing by 43% compared to the previous year. As more people across the country show interest in digital assets, this growth is also being felt in sport-linked tokens.

Flamengo Fan Token $MENGO is one of the clear examples, with its trading volume jumping by over 135% in the past day. The token has also gained more than 13% over the past week, showing rising attention from local traders and football fans.

Brazil’s Crypto Boom Draws in New and Young Investors

A new report from Mercado Bitcoin reveals that cryptocurrency use in Brazil is expanding rapidly. The average investor in the country now puts in more than $1,000, which is higher than before. This shows that people are not just testing crypto anymore, but are putting in real money.

Young people are leading this growth. Investors under the age of 24 recorded the biggest rise in activity, with a 56% increase from last year. At the same time, older investors, large firms, and wealthy individuals are also getting more involved. This mix of users has helped push Brazil ahead of many other countries in crypto growth.

Another key trend is how people spread their money. About 18% of investors now hold more than one digital asset. This shows that users are learning and making smarter choices instead of betting on just one option.

Why Stable Options Are Gaining Ground

Many Brazilian investors are looking for safer choices within crypto. Trading in stable assets like USDT has tripled since 2024. These assets are often seen as calmer during market swings, which makes them appealing to beginners.

Interest in fixed return crypto products has also more than doubled, growing by 108%. Mercado Bitcoin alone handled about $325 million in these products. This shows that many users want steady returns instead of sharp price moves.

Bitcoin remains the most traded asset in Brazil, followed by USDT, Ethereum, and Solana. Big firms are also taking notice. Itaú Asset Management now advises clients to put a small share of their money into Bitcoin to help balance risks.

$MENGO Trading Activity Picks Up Alongside Market Growth

As crypto use grows in Brazil, fan tokens are also seeing more action. Flamengo Fan Token $MENGO recorded a trading volume of $253,275 in the last 24 hours, marking a 135.40% increase from the previous day. This rise shows growing interest, likely driven by both the wider crypto growth and Flamengo’s strong fan base.

The token is priced at $0.07218. While it dipped slightly by 0.88% in the past day, it is still up 13.56% over the past week. With 15 million tokens in circulation, $MENGO now holds a market value of just over $1 million.
