Crypto / Blockchain

The team here at VHL has had the unique experience of advising our clients in the world of cryptocurrency, blockchain, and Web 3.0 technologies. Our attorneys have supported startups and established businesses with the development and implementation of crypto-based business models. Our comprehensive knowledge in crypto encompasses blockchain games (including anti-gambling regulation), token-based financings, non-fungible tokens (NFTs), crypto fund formation, and related matters. We have advised on various cryptocurrency projects, ensuring our clients comply with State and Federal securities laws, including AML/KYC compliance. Further, we have assisted with cryptocurrency exchange navigation, and have handled disputes with cryptocurrency exchanges and platforms.

We also advise our clients on emerging blockchain technologies and advise on the appropriate protocols for smart contract and blockchain application, as well as token-based financing. Volatility and regulatory uncertainty make experienced legal support a crucial component of any token-based financing plan. This necessitates the support of attorneys who are familiar with longstanding securities regulatory practices and interpretations as well as current applications.

This knowledge allows us to provide perspectives and insights regarding potentially critical issues and risks that arise daily and of which relative newcomers to the space may be unaware.
