It is undeniable that the World Cup is moving the national economy. Independent of the initial forecasts overvalued or the most pessimistic current estimates, the truth is that since the announcement that the event would take place in Brazil, investors worldwide sought business opportunities to be made in the country during that period. Brazil expects from 600 thousand to 01 million tourists and foreigners, and about 03 million Brazilian tourists, the so-called internal tourism. The biggest sporting event in the world, according to research commissioned by the Brasilian Ministry of Sports, should yield about U.S. $ 183 billion to the country until 2019. With this panorama many companies are starting business in the country in order to attract customers and foreign investors, especially those based on business models already successful in other parts of the world.

A variety of cyprocurrency-centric topics will be examined including business opportunities, tax implications and controls to avoid criminal activities.
