OranjeBTC Adds Fernando Ulrich To Board Amid BTC Push

TheCryptoTimesPublished on 2025-09-26Last updated on 2025-09-26

OranjeBTC, set to become Latin America’s largest publicly traded Bitcoin treasury company, has appointed economist and Bitcoin educator Fernando Ulrich to its Board of Directors. The move comes just days after the firm disclosed a $385 million Bitcoin purchase, its largest to date, bringing its holdings to over $400 million ahead of its upcoming B3 stock exchange listing.

Ulrich is widely recognized for his early advocacy of Bitcoin in Brazil. In 2014, he published Bitcoin – A Moeda na Era Digital, the first Portuguese-language book on the subject. His influence has grown through one of Brazil’s most-watched YouTube channels covering economics, politics, and digital assets.

Leadership for a bitcoin-only mandate

The appointment signals OranjeBTC’s intent to reinforce its positioning as a Bitcoin-pure play amid growing interest in crypto treasury strategies. CEO Guilherme Gomes has stated the company will go public via a reverse merger with Intergraus in early October, with an 85% free float expected post-listing.

Ulrich’s addition may help OranjeBTC bridge policy influence and financial education, particularly as it plans to launch a crypto literacy platform using Intergraus’ infrastructure. The firm aims to pioneer Bitcoin-first investing in a market where adoption is high but institutional infrastructure remains fragmented.

Bitcoin Treasury trend

OranjeBTC joins a growing number of firms building aggressive BTC-focused portfolios. The move echoes strategies seen from MicroStrategy in the U.S. and, more recently, Nakamoto Holdings (NAKA), whose PIPE-driven volatility underscores the high-risk, high-conviction nature of this approach.

As more companies turn to Bitcoin as a treasury reserve asset, board-level decisions are becoming as critical as balance sheet allocations. The onboarding of Ulrich adds not only subject-matter credibility but also suggests that Bitcoin-native governance may become a core part of this emerging corporate archetype.

Grayscale Lists 3 Reasons Why Bitcoin Is Worth Buying Right Now

Grayscale's Head of Research, Zach Pandl, suggests Bitcoin may currently be a favorable buying opportunity for long-term investors. In an assessment from August 21st, he based this view on three key factors, while emphasizing that Bitcoin's future behavior remains uncertain. The first factor is the enduring structural trend of Bitcoin adoption, driven by government deficits, growing blockchain use in financial services, and generational shifts in investment portfolios. The second is Bitcoin's market cycle position, noting the current bear market has lasted 10 months, approaching the typical duration of past cycles. The third factor is the macroeconomic outlook, particularly real interest rates and Federal Reserve policy, which has recently shifted to be more favorable. Pandl acknowledges Bitcoin's price volatility, referencing a recent swing to $79,461 before a pullback, and cautions that further Fed rate hikes could pressure prices. He concludes that, taken together, these three factors—ongoing adoption, a deep bear market phase, and generally supportive macro conditions—indicate current prices could be an attractive entry point for long-term investors. Grayscale's evaluation focuses on market conditions rather than predicting an absolute price bottom.

Mysterious "Whale" Sells $576 Million Worth of Bitcoin Amid BTC Price Approach to $80,000

An unidentified crypto "whale" sold 2,700 BTC (worth approximately $211.8 million) in a single transaction, bringing its total sales over three days to 7,700 BTC for roughly $576.6 million. This selling pressure occurs as Bitcoin trades near the $80,000 mark, having recently retreated from nearly reaching that level. While large holders often sell to realize profits during sharp rallies, on-chain data only confirms the movement of coins, not the motive. So far, these sales have had little impact on Bitcoin's upward momentum, with the asset posting double-digit gains recently and its strongest weekly increase since 2024. The rally was fueled by a U.S. Treasury Department announcement to at least double its long-term bond buyback operations starting September 9th, which lowered bond yields and pushed investors toward riskier assets like Bitcoin. This week's selling marks a reversal from a recent accumulation trend, where large holders had added about 43,000 BTC (worth ~$2.75B) over a 60-day period ending in mid-August, helping set the stage for the current price surge. As Bitcoin hovers around $80,000, traders are watching key factors: whether other major holders will follow suit and sell into strength, and if renewed institutional demand from ETFs can absorb the selling pressure. The outcome will likely determine Bitcoin's next major price move.

Galaxy Says Bitcoin Must Reclaim $82,470 Level to Confirm End of Bear Market

Galaxy Research states that for Bitcoin to confirm the end of its bear market, it must reclaim its 50-week moving average, currently near $82,470. Analysis of historical bear markets since 2011 shows that once Bitcoin sustainably recovers this key weekly level, it has not subsequently set a new closing low in 11 out of 13 instances. While the 50-day moving average provides faster signals, it comes with many false starts; the first attempt to reclaim it failed in every historical bear market. The 50-week average offers more reliable confirmation but at the cost of timing—successful recoveries of this level typically occurred months after the market bottom, with Bitcoin already up 63-237%. In the current cycle, Bitcoin is trading around $77,190, roughly 6% below the critical $82,470 level. The recent rally is optimistic, but a weekly close above this threshold is needed for stronger historical confirmation that the June low marked the bear market bottom. Until then, the recovery remains unconfirmed.

ZachXBT Calls Canada the World's Most Dangerous Region in Terms of Cryptocurrency Fraud

Blockchain investigator ZackXBT has ranked Canada as the worst jurisdiction globally for victims of cryptocurrency crimes, placing it above countries like the UK, India, Nigeria, and Algeria. He criticized Canadian law enforcement for routinely refusing to act even when presented with substantial evidence of crimes, such as complete dossiers on ransomware operators or home invasion robberies. ZackXBT highlighted Toronto as a global hub for fraud and cited instances where authorities seized assets from innocent users on platforms like Tradeogre. Due to this perceived inaction, he has stopped assisting Canadian victims and plans to block access to his support services for low-quality jurisdictions on his upcoming website. He also criticized Indian authorities as "incompetent" and noted the UK's second-place ranking in his list of poor-performing regions.

Illinois' 0.2% Cryptocurrency Tax Sparks Major Legal Battle

Blockchain Association and Crypto Council for Innovation filed a lawsuit on August 21 in an Illinois district court against state officials, seeking to declare the state's Digital Asset Tax Act unlawful and block its implementation. The lawsuit centers on Illinois' plan to impose a 0.2% tax on the value of a digital asset for certain transactions through a digital asset broker, effective January 1. Plaintiffs argue the tax applies even to non-sales activities like transferring assets between wallets or paying for custody services, which is unlike the treatment of traditional assets like stocks or gold. They contend this discriminates against digital assets, taxing the mechanism of storage or transfer rather than an economic gain. The complaint highlights multiple ambiguities: a single crypto purchase involving exchange, deposit, and custody could trigger multiple taxable events; the law doesn't define how to value the asset or determine a customer's residency for tax purposes, leaving brokers guessing. Businesses face potential civil and criminal penalties for non-compliance, possibly leading them to avoid Illinois customers. The groups also challenge the legislative process, noting the tax was added as a small part of a massive 1,624-page bill passed hastily, violating constitutional requirements. They claim the tax violates federal laws like the Internet Tax Freedom Act and the dormant Commerce Clause. The immediate goal is to obtain an injunction before the January 1 enforcement date, testing whether a state can single out digital asset transactions for such a tax.
