Trade DRAM Price Index in Brazil

DRAM Price Index (DRAM) is tradable as a perpetual from Brazil: the legal status, working funding rails and the practical route are below.

Is DRAM Price Index trading legal in Brazil?

Owning, buying and selling spot crypto is lawful in Brazil and there is no restriction on individuals holding virtual assets. Leveraged derivatives are a separate question and sit with a different regulator.

Under the securities law, Law 6.385/1976, a security includes “other derivative contracts, regardless of the underlying assets”, which captures perpetual futures and CFDs referenced to crypto; the same law makes distributing and intermediating securities dependent on prior authorisation from the Comissão de Valores Mobiliários. So perps and CFDs are not banned as a product for Brazilians, but they are lawful only when offered through a CVM-authorised intermediary, and an offshore venue that markets them to Brazilian retail without that authorisation is offering them irregularly.

What the contract is

The contract itself does not change by geography: a DRAM perpetual settles in USDC everywhere.

Buying $1,000 of DRAM at 5x uses $200 of collateral. Higher leverage moves the liquidation price closer to your entry: your exposure is the position size, whatever margin you posted. Set a stop-loss below your entry before you walk away.

15% IRPF, assessed annually, on income and gains from financial applications held abroad — a category that Law 14.754/2023 defines as expressly including virtual assets and digital wallets. This is the rate that reaches a Brazilian resident trading on an offshore venue. A separate domestic regime for crypto held in Brazil, with progressive capital-gains rates and a small-disposal exemption, is not confirmed here.
