The Business of Cryptocurrency: A Discussion of Key Regulatory Issues
In addition to discussing what cryptocurrency is, we look at some of the regulatory rules that apply to this increasingly popular but complicated financial instrument, including registration and compliance program requirements, and consider how crypto exchanges, financial institutions, and other businesses should address crypto transactions involving unhosted digital wallets and requirements for the identification and reporting of counter-parties to transactions.
Mike Robotti, a partner in Ballard Spahr’s White Collar and Internal Investigations Group hosts the conversation, joined by Peter Hardy and Marjorie Peerce, partners in the Group.
