Brazil Passes Law Allowing Seized Crypto to Fund Public Security Efforts
Brazil has passed a new law allowing authorities to use seized cryptocurrencies to support public security initiatives. The move enables funding for police training, equipment, and intelligence operations. The legislation also strengthens enforcement powers to restrict access to crypto platforms. This comes amid rising illicit crypto activity globally, with governments tightening oversight and regulation to combat misuse of digital assets.
