Bruno Oliveira, a man from São Paulo, Brazil, has spent two years doing what every crypto bro dreams of: turning trash into digital gold. Sort of.
Meet Bruno Oliveira, the “crypto scrapper” who’s spent 730 days sweating through the small stuff (literally) to buy Bitcoin. Two years of dumpster diving and he’s this close to a single Bitcoin. Let’s hope he doesn’t step on a Lego on his way to the bank.
His plan? Collect cans, sell them, and buy Bitcoin. Revolutionary? No. Cheaper than therapy? Absolutely. “I wanted to invest in crypto without touching a keyboard,” he reportedly said. Bold strategy, Cotton.
Over two years, Oliveira has sold enough cans to buy roughly 1 BTC. That’s 6,000 satoshis per $75 of recycled soda cans. Because nothing says “financial portfolio” like a backpack full of Tab empties.
Recycling for the Rest of Us (Who Can’t Afford a Tesla)
This Brazilian man has spent two years collecting and selling cans to buy Bitcoin. He’s nearly there. The man is a walking, talking proof-of-work meme.
His journey began with a simple question: “What if I worked harder than a Bitcoin miner’s GPU?” Legend has it he found his first can in a dumpster behind a Bitcoin ATM. Destiny? Probably. Sane? Debatable.
This Brazilian man has been collecting and selling cans to buy Bitcoin for two years.
He’s closing in on 1 BTC.
Legendary 🔥

Through recycling, Oliveira proves that small, consistent actions add up. Like how eating one salad won’t kill your cholesterol, but hey, it’s a start.
His story has crypto Twitter swooning. “This is the purest form of Proof of Work!” they cry. Meanwhile, actual miners are over there melting GPUs into paperweights.
Bitcoin: For When You Can’t Get a Car Loan
In Brazil, where the banking system is about as accessible as a locked diary, Oliveira’s story resonates. “Bitcoin gave me financial freedom,” he says. Because nothing says “freedom” like storing your life savings in a USB drive taped to your belly button.
For the unbanked masses, crypto’s the only ticket out of poverty! Unless you lose your private keys. Or get mugged for your wallet. Or accidentally throw it into a volcano. Then, uh… back to cans.
Perseverance, or Just Really Good at Holding Grudges?
Oliveira’s commitment is inspiring. He’s the crypto version of Rocky Balboa, if Rocky trained by rummaging through alleys and yelling “ADRIEEEEN!” at recycling bins.
His journey proves Bitcoin isn’t just for Ivy League coders or people who understand what a “blockchain” is. It’s for anyone willing to work for it! Like mining, but with more tetanus shots.
