BRLA risks

Issuer and custody

Your claim is on the issuer and the banks or funds holding its reserves. A failure or freeze there can break the peg, as USDC briefly did in March 2023.

Freezes and blacklists

Fiat-backed issuers can usually freeze tokens at specific addresses, for example to comply with sanctions or court orders.

Small and thinly traded

With $4.3M in circulation, exiting a large position may move the price. Redemption may be limited to approved customers.

Bridged versions

Copies of a stablecoin moved by third-party bridges depend on those bridges. Prefer the issuer's native contract on each chain.

Currently off peg

At the last update BRLA traded at R$0.9917 against a target of 1.

Regulation

Rules such as the US GENIUS Act and the EU's MiCA can restrict which stablecoins exchanges list in a given country.
