In a land where the samba rhythm dances with the digital age, Brazilian lawmakers are now pondering a curious piece of legislation. This bill, a veritable tapestry of modernity and tradition, seeks to grant employers the audacity to pay their employees in cryptocurrencies, Bitcoin being the star of the show. 🎉
Enter Federal deputy Luiz Philippe de Orleans e Bragança, a man whose lineage whispers of royal blood, now striding into the legislative arena with a proposal that could make even the most stoic bureaucrat chuckle. His bill, filed on March 12, PL 957/2025, is a bold attempt to regulate the wild west of crypto payments for wages, benefits, and other forms of remuneration. Who knew that the future of salary payments would involve a dash of Bitcoin and a sprinkle of Brazilian real? 💸
Orleans-Braganza, a modern-day prince in a suit, is not just a figurehead; he’s serving his second term as a federal deputy for São Paulo. And, in a twist that could only be scripted by fate, he’s a supporter of Truth Social, the social media platform that has become synonymous with the name of a certain former US President. Talk about mixing politics with a side of irony! 😏
Bitcoin: The Half-Baked Salary Solution
In this legislative comedy, Orleans-Braganza has proposed a rather peculiar stipulation: employees shall not receive their entire salary in crypto. No, no! That would be too easy. Instead, he suggests a cap of 50%. “The payment of salaries exclusively in virtual assets is prohibited,” he declares, with the gravitas of a man who knows the weight of his words. However, exceptions are made for expatriates and foreign workers, because why not? 🌍
The bill also opens the door for “independent service providers” to bask in the glory of full crypto payments, provided they navigate the labyrinth of contractual provisions. For the rest, the Brazilian real must constitute at least half of their salary. A delightful dance of currencies, indeed! 💃
And let us not forget the conversion of crypto payments, which must adhere to the exchange rate set by an institution blessed by the Central Bank of Brazil. Because nothing says “trust” like a government-approved conversion rate! 🏦
This tale is still unfolding, and as the plot thickens, we shall keep our ears to the ground for further developments. Stay tuned, dear reader, for the next chapter in this saga of digital currency and legislative whimsy!
