USDC and the Brazilian Real (Brazil)

Brazil enacted a legal framework for digital assets in June 2023, designating the central bank as the primary regulator for crypto service providers. Crypto gains are subject to progressive income tax. Brazil has one of the largest crypto-using populations in Latin America, with over 10 million users.

The USDC/BRL exchange rate fluctuates based on global supply and demand across cryptocurrency exchanges. Major exchanges operating in Brazil include both international platforms and local providers. When converting USDC to BRL, consider exchange fees (typically 0.1%-1.5%), withdrawal fees, and any spread between the quoted rate and the actual execution price.

Since USDC is a stablecoin pegged to the US dollar, the USDC/BRL rate closely tracks the USD/BRL foreign exchange rate. Small deviations from the peg can occur during periods of market stress. The rate shown above reflects the live market price, which may differ slightly from $1.00 USD.
