Foxbit is a product of Foxbit Servicos Digitais LTDA. and was founded in 2014. The company is owned by Guto Schiavon and Joao Canhada. Schiavon was schooled in Information Systems at Univem and is the Operations Director for Foxbit, while Joao started in the Bitcoins market in 2013 and is the CEO. Their goal was to create a transparent and legitimate company in the Brazilian crypto market.

Summary:

Foxbit manages to offer the highest liquidity in the Brazilian market. Their functions are limited and they only offer Bitcoin trading. The most important fact is that they have slow customer service, which tends to have a negative impact on their image. They claim to offer a lot of transparency but for the moment there is very little information available to the user.
