Brazil’s Crypto Market Sees Surge in Stablecoin Transactions
- Brazil’s crypto transactions have reached between $6 billion and $8 billion monthly.
- Stablecoins like USDT and USDC account for up to 90% of reported transactions.
- The Receita Federal plans to implement a new reporting system called DeCripto by July 2025.
- Data collection under the new rules will start in January 2025, categorizing various transaction types.
- Crypto service providers will be required to hold between $2 million and $7 million in capital under new regulations.
