What the law actually says

Is brent crude trading legal in Peru?

Peru does not ban crypto, and it does not licence it either. The state's one firm hold on the sector is anti-money-laundering: the Superintendencia de Banca, Seguros y AFP, through the Unidad de Inteligencia Financiera del Perú, publishes the list of 'sujetos obligados' - the businesses that must report to the UIF - and item 30 on that list is 'Proveedores de Servicios de Activos Virtuales (PSAV)'. That is a reporting duty: nothing here requires a Peruvian crypto venue to hold a licence, sets capital or conduct requirements for one, or prohibits an individual from buying, holding or selling crypto.

What the contract is

A perpetual on BRENT tracks price and does not confer ownership of the underlying — the same contract mechanics apply in every jurisdiction; what differs by country is legal status and funding rails.
