CertiK Report: Brazil's cryptocurrency market enters a comprehensive regulatory phase, with independent verification becoming the key to access

Web3 security company CertiK released the report "Intel3D: PSAV and Brazil's New Security Standards." The article points out that as the deadline for authorization applications set by the Central Bank of Brazil (October 30 of this year) approaches, local virtual asset service providers (PSAV) are facing a round of concentrated compliance adjustments, and compliance and security certifications issued by independent third parties are transitioning from industry best practices to important requirements for market access.

According to the report, CertiK is currently conducting independent external audits based on the Central Bank of Brazil's Normative Instruction No. 701. As one of the markets with the highest adoption of crypto assets globally, the impact of this regulatory transformation in Brazil may far exceed the local market. The report shows that Brazil currently ranks fifth in the world for actual crypto asset adoption rates. From June 2024 to June 2025, the on-chain asset value received by Brazil reached $318.8 billion, accounting for nearly one-third of on-chain activity in South America during the same period. Stablecoins have become an important infrastructure in the local digital asset market, accounting for about 80% of the trading volume in crypto asset transactions reported to the Federal Revenue of Brazil.
