Brazilian Congress to Debate Lula-Imposed Crypto Tax Scheme
Brazilian lawmakers are set to scrutinize President Lula's controversial cryptocurrency taxation measure, which revoked income tax exemptions for small-scale trading and specifically targeted DeFi operations. The provisional decree, enacted in June, has sparked debate over its legal and economic implications for the digital asset sector.
The move reflects growing global regulatory pressure on crypto markets, particularly decentralized finance ecosystems. Market participants await the congressional decision, which could set a precedent for fiscal policy in emerging economies.
