🚨 Brazil Tightens Crypto Oversight… and Self-Custody Wallets Enter the Monitoring Circle!
Starting October 1, 2026, Brazil will require institutions subject to oversight by the Central Bank to report to COAF any crypto transfers worth $10,000 or more from, or to, self-custody wallets.
⚠️ Important: This is not a ban on Self-Custody and not a transfer limit—it’s a reporting threshold that triggers regulatory monitoring.
🔐 You hold your own keys… but transferring through a regulated institution may leave a heavier regulatory footprint.
👀 Are we looking at necessary regulation to combat financial crimes, or the beginning of a bigger squeeze on crypto privacy?
