Connected With Latham


Jan 4, 2022

In 2021, the outlines of emerging crypto legal and regulatory regimes became steadily clearer. In the US, new regulators brought a fresh perspective and new enthusiasm for investor protections, with parallel efforts gaining traction in Congress. Across the Atlantic, the European Commission adopted a digital finance package and will soon ratify the Regulation on Markets in Crypto-Assets (MiCA) framework. In this episode of Connected With Latham, Hong Kong partner Simon Hawkins, London partner Stuart Davis, and New York partners Yvette Valdez and Stephen Wink, Co-Chairs of the firm’s Global Blockchain & Cryptocurrency Task Force, join together to review the legal and regulatory developments in crypto from 2021, and look ahead to the direction of travel in 2022.
