Crypto’s continued rapid, complex evolution impacting many fields of Law requires ongoing discussion and analysis. The ‘Crypto in Disputes Forum’ squares up to and tackles the hard legal questions involved in managing and litigating digital assets – unlike many other cryptocurrency events that focus strictly on the technology involved.

Specifically scheduled for the 25th of June, this event has been timed to closely follow a series of key, precedent setting rulings for Crypto. This event will ensure discussion encompasses these forthcoming developments for 2024 in disputes, private client, and FIRE, addressing them with a scope and depth that will be sure to tangibly advance your awareness and capabilities.
