Brazil has passed a major new law to fight organized crime, which President Luiz Inácio Lula da Silva signed this Tuesday. The law lets judges freeze, seize, and even liquidate digital assets like Bitcoin and other cryptocurrencies linked to serious criminal activity. It also allows courts to approve early sales of these assets if needed. Money from seized crypto will be used to strengthen public security, fund police operations, and support crime-fighting efforts. Experts say this makes Brazil’s approach to crypto and crime more practical and focused on results.
