Overview

It is impossible to ignore the explosive growth in crypto-currencies and Blockchain-enabled means for capital raising. Increasingly, both start-ups and established high-growth tech companies are choosing to raise capital, enrich existing technology platforms or introduce new or novel businesses using Blockchain-enabled technology. Of equal significance is the growing investor interest in crypto-currencies and initial coin offerings. Given the rapid pace of change, it is no surprise that we are confronted with a myriad of significant questions relating to the economic, legal and regulatory framework associated with Blockchain-based investments.
