On a day that can be considered historic for the cryptocurrencies market in Brazil, the Federal Senate approved last Tuesday (26) the Bill (PL) 3825/2019, which regulates the sector in the country. The proposal, authored by Senator Irajá Abreu (PSD-TO) still needs to go through the Chamber of Deputies and be sanctioned by the President of the Republic to become law. While the proposal moves through Congress, the cryptocurrency exchanges are moving, since the PL establishes that the regulation of brokerage firms will be carried out by the central bank, in addition to inspection by the Securities and Exchange Commission (CVM), among other provisions.
Although the project is far from being unanimous, since the sedimentation of cryptocurrencies is decentralization, the regulation may have an impact on job creation through the opening, or strengthening, of exchange offices in Brazil. This has apparently already provoked reflections through job vacancies announced in recent days, many of which are not directly linked to brokerage firms. Possibilities that expand the chances for professionals across the country through remote work.
