Brazil has emerged as one of the most active crypto markets in Latin America, and the growing adoption of Pix — the country’s real-time payment system — has made it easier than ever for Brazilian locals to buy Bitcoin, Ethereum, and dozens of other digital currencies such as Tether, Binance Coin, USDC, Dogecoin, Solana, Ripple, and many, many more. With the launch of MyBTCX.com, a global crypto exchange offering localized payment methods, Brazilian users can now easily fund their crypto purchases using Pix. This guide explains exactly how the process works, why Pix is the best option for buying crypto in Brazil, and how you can get started today.
What’s Pix?
Pix is a fast, low-cost, and secure payment system created by the Central Bank of Brazil (Banco Central do Brasil) to modernize the way money moves in the country. Since its launch in November 2020, Pix has become the most popular payment method in Brazil. It allows users to send or receive funds instantly at any time of day, including weekends and holidays. As a regulated infrastructure with safe encryption, Pix is both convenient and secure, and since it’s developed, operated, and maintained by the Central Bank of Brazil, it offers full-time availability without charging fees for personal use. Pix is not a private company aiming for profit, but a public infrastructure created to modernize and democratize financial services in Brazil.

For those looking to buy BTC, ETH, USDT, USDC, XRP, SOL and dozens of other cryptocurrencies in Brazil, Pix offers several unique advantages. It’s instant, which means funds are transferred and confirmed within seconds, a key factor for time-sensitive trades. It’s also always available — on holidays, a Sunday evening, or a busy weekday, Pix works around the clock. Unlike traditional bank wires or card payments that can involve third-party fees and delays, Pix keeps costs low and transactions fast. Its user-friendly design also eliminates the need to manually input long bank account numbers or personal data. As long as you have a smartphone or device and a Brazilian bank account that supports Pix, you’re ready to trade cryptocurrency.

To buy crypto using Pix on MyBTCX.com, the first step is to create an account. Visit MyBTCX.com and complete the quick sign-up process by providing your name and email.
You will be asked to verify your identity in line with industry standard Know Your Customer (KYC) requirements. Once your account is set up, login and navigate to the “Buy & Sell” section at the top left hand side of your screen. You can then choose from a variety of digital currencies, including Bitcoin (BTC), Ether (ETH), and popular altcoins like USDT, BNB, USDC, XRP, SOL and more.
After selecting your cryptocurrency, in this example it will be Bitcoin, enter the dollar amount you’d like to purchase. You can specify the amount in Brazilian Reais (BRL) and our system will automatically show you the estimated amount of BTC or crypto you will receive. Once you’ve reviewed the order summary and accepted the terms, proceed to payment and choose Pix as your payment method. Once you’ve either scanned your receiving wallet address via the QR code within your wallet, or entered it manually, our system will allow you to press the red “Buy” button to proceed to payment confirmation.
You’ll then be sent an email verification code to enter on the next screen for security. Once you’ve copy and pasted this to proceed, you’ll be presented the field where you’ll enter your Cadastro de Pessoas Físicas (CPF) number that links the payment to your bank account:
After you’ve entered your CPF number, press the blue “Submit” button and proceed to review some important instructions as shown below:
