Mercado Bitcoin resumes balance inquiries... applies pre-incident prices

Not investment advice. Muhabbit scores how much a story may matter, not which way to trade.
Brazil's Mercado Bitcoin resumed partial customer account access on December 10 (KST), showing balances and valuations as of just before its November 2 security incident, while trading and withdrawals remain suspended. Balances are visible via the website with asset- and product-level detail, the app shows only an asset summary, and API access will return later. The displayed crypto quantities reflect pre-incident account records, and BRL valuations use prices from that time, so subsequent market moves are not reflected. The distinction matters because restored visibility does not yet mean restored liquidity: customer funds stay locked until the exchange reopens trading and withdrawals. What to watch next is when Mercado Bitcoin re-enables trading, withdrawals and API access, and whether post-incident balances and prices are reconciled to current market levels.
