Brazilian Lawmakers Consider Bill to Shield Debtors' Savings and Cryptocurrencies from Seizure

Brazilian lawmakers are discussing a bill to protect a portion of debtors' savings from seizure.

In September, an amendment was proposed to include crypto assets in the protected funds list.
This became possible after Brazil enacted a crypto framework in June 2021.
