Brazil’s “Drex” is coming in 2026.
What is it?
A Central Bank Digital Currency (CBDC) controlled by the Brazilian government.
It won’t be optional. It may become the only legal form of money.
With Drex, the state can freeze, block, or even expire your balance.
Why does it matter?
Cash in Brazil dropped from 43% in 2019 to only 6% in 2024.
With PIX (the instant payment system), young people almost never use ATMs anymore.
Every transaction is already monitored — Drex means even tighter control.
The risks:
Funds frozen if you spend outside your city.
Automatic fines deducted from your account.
Spending restrictions similar to China’s social credit system.
No banks in between — the government has direct control of your wallet.
The future:
Drex for obedience.
Bitcoin for sovereignty.
💡 Self-custody your Bitcoin. Don’t wait until it’s too late.
