Crowdfunding license granted by CVM in Brazil
In a major development for Brazil’s crypto sector, three tokenization companies—PeerBR, TR Block, and Loopi Plataforma—have received authorization from the Brazilian Securities and Exchange Commission (CVM) to operate regulated crowdfunding platforms.
The approval marks the first successful outcomes of a new advisory program launched by the Brazilian Association of Crypto Economy (ABcripto) in partnership with CVM, according to Livecoins.
The initiative, launched in 2023, aims to support crypto-related businesses in navigating the complex regulatory landscape. By offering end-to-end guidance—from pre-application analysis to submission—ABcripto seeks to accelerate the licensing process while ensuring full compliance with CVM standards.
A milestone for Brazil’s crypto ecosystem
Each of the approved companies followed a unique path. PeerBR, part of Grupo GCB, obtained its license in just 15 days—an unusually swift turnaround. “ABcripto’s guidance gave us the clarity and confidence to complete each step correctly,” said Gustavo Blasco, CEO of PeerBR.
TR Block, a Liqi company, emphasized how the program helped align innovation with compliance. “We didn’t have to sacrifice creativity to meet regulatory demands,” said Rita Casolato, Head of Compliance. Loopi Plataforma, led by Matheus Cangussu, also praised the advisory program’s role in helping the company build its operations in line with regulatory expectations from the outset.
Bernardo Srur, CEO of ABcripto, called the approvals “a turning point” for Brazil’s digital asset landscape. “This sets a precedent for a safer, more transparent market,” he said.With crowdfunding licenses now in hand, these firms are positioned to offer new investment opportunities through tokenization—broadening access and deepening trust in Brazil’s evolving crypto economy.
Meanwhile, Brazil has solidified its status as a global leader in crypto, with 26 million citizens—12% of the population—owning digital assets. This ranks the country sixth worldwide in crypto adoption, highlighting its growing impact in the sector.
