According to Odaily Planet Daily, former federal deputy Luiz Phillipe of Orleans-Braganza submitted a bill to Congress seeking to legalize salary payments in Bitcoin.

The bill allows workers to receive up to 50% of their wages and benefits in cryptocurrency, subject to employer consent, and employees can terminate at any time.

50% of the salary still needs to be paid in Brazilian Reais to ensure the currency's practicality. Freelancers, foreigners, and individual entrepreneurs are not applicable.

The proposal must be approved by a majority vote in a full session of the House of Representatives before it can be considered by the Federal Senate.
