President Lula Frees Two Civil Servants to Attend Top Crypto Event in Panama

2025/09/24 03:00

Brazil is becoming more crypto-intensive, with President Lula appointing two civil servants to the Western Hemisphere Cryptocurrency Meeting in Panama.

The President of Brazil, Lula da Silva, has given the green light to two Brazilian civil servants to visit a major cryptocurrency gathering in Panama.

 Brazil has Maria Fernanda Modesto Guimarães Lisboa of Piauí and Betina Alves Teixeira of Goiases to represent it at the Fourth Meeting of the Western Hemisphere Cryptocurrency Working Group, according to the official decree published on September 19, 2025. 

This is happening in Panama City, September 22 through to the 26th of September, 2025, and is aimed at promoting the development of crypto-related policy and partnership in the Americas.

This name emphasizes the willingness of Brazil to participate in the dynamic digital asset arena.

 The Brazilian government, led by Lula, is striving to establish Brazilian dominance over cryptocurrencies and cooperation at a hemispheric level. 

Those two civil servants, involved in the international gathering, will be working under the National Secretariat of Public Security under the Ministry of Justice and Public Security.

They will not cost the government anything, including traveling expenses, which will only enhance the significance of this international gathering.

Broadening Brazil’s Crypto Agenda

Brazil has been slowly developing its policy towards the regulation of cryptocurrencies. The existing administration has realized the disruptive power of blockchain technology and cryptocurrencies. 

During his campaign, President Lula demanded regulatory systems that would work in line with the international regulations and policies against money laundering to better regulate digital assets.

The Panama incident gives Brazil an opportunity to cooperate with other nations within the Western Hemisphere. 

It is focused on enhancing policies, exchanging best practices, and potentially organizing actions against criminal activities in the crypto realm. 

Lula is sending two civil servants from the general security sector, signaling Brazil’s determination to be a very vocal participant in regional cryptocurrency formation.

A Strategic Move Amid Rising Crypto Adoption

The shift by Brazil occurs because most nations are becoming more concerned with cryptocurrencies, both regulation-wise and economically.

 The interest shown by the government toward crypto markets is strategic, considering the number of companies in Brazil that already possess digital assets exceeding 12,000. 

Panama is an important event in establishing international agreements, and the involvement of Brazil in Panama is a sign of the larger South American adoption of blockchain development.

The government’s participation in such international meetings indicates what could happen in the future, as the country may introduce new policies.

Since Brazil is an active participant, it might lead to the introduction of new policies and structures that can lead to additional investments and protection of risks.

Audrey Tang: Infrastructure has been gradually improved, and Ethereum should focus on application implementation in the next ten years

PANews reported on October 22nd that at the ETHShanghai 2025 main forum, Audrey Tang, founder of the Ethereum Application Alliance (in preparation)/Shanhaiwu, introduced that Shanhaiwu aims to create a cross-disciplinary, pop-up builder village, bringing together technology developers, AI researchers, organizational behavior experts, and governance practitioners. This community aims to promote Ethereum innovation through resource connectivity, educational systems, and a cross-disciplinary ecosystem. This month-long intensive construction project, held annually at a fixed location, fosters exchange between Eastern and Western blockchain communities, fosters real-world application scenarios, helps startups move from prototyping to market maturity, and enhances the influence of the Chinese-speaking community in the global Ethereum ecosystem. Audrey Tang also stated that while the Ethereum ecosystem has gradually improved its infrastructure, it still faces challenges in application deployment and community sustainability. Over the past three years, we have promoted ecosystem development through community education, developer support, and public open source projects. However, overall business density remains underdeveloped, with most communities still relying on donations for operations and developers lacking experience in fundraising, commercialization, and team management. The Application Alliance, a non-profit organization operating as an MPO (Public Goods Organization), aims to bring together the strengths of communities, foundations, institutions, and businesses through structured financing and a global membership system to establish a long-term, sustainable funding pool to support public goods development, open source tool development, and global application experimentation. The Alliance not only provides support for startups from ideation to market implementation, but also promotes the real-world implementation and implementation of emerging applications through education and training, developer community building, and cross-disciplinary collaboration. The Alliance aims to foster a sustainable and impactful Ethereum application ecosystem and accelerate the blockchain's transition from infrastructure development to application prosperity. She concluded by emphasizing that after completing infrastructure development, Ethereum should focus on application deployment in the next decade.
