Binance seeks Brazil crypto licence before 30 Oct deadline

The exchange has applied to the Central Bank of Brazil through its local entity, BBrasil, as it restricts some services and delists 22 crypto assets for Brazilian users.

Why it matters: Brazil is one of Latin America's largest crypto markets, and its 30 Oct deadline forces exchanges already serving Brazilian users to seek authorisation or stop operating.

Binance has applied for a crypto licence in Brazil, submitting its request to the Central Bank of Brazil through its local entity, BBrasil, on 23 Oct, Cointelegraph reports. The filing comes ahead of a 30 Oct deadline for existing crypto service providers in the country to seek authorisation so they can keep operating under transitional arrangements. Applying does not amount to regulatory approval.

The exchange said the application would let Brazilian users keep accessing crypto assets, stablecoin trading, payments and investment services.

Thiago Sarandy, Binance's general manager in Brazil, said the company backs a regulated market that accounts for the traits of virtual assets.

What to watch: The Central Bank of Brazil's 30 Oct deadline for existing crypto service providers to submit authorisation applications.
