I learned a great deal at the Fordham Law Blockchain Regulatory Symposium. Few events bring together so many thoughtful speakers from across the ecosystem, along with policymakers and government officials of different stripes. Now more than ever, this is a must-attend for people interested in these issues.

The 2022 Fordham Law Blockchain Regulatory Symposium was fantastically informative, featuring deeply substantive discussion of the most pressing legal and policy issues at the nexus of blockchain and regulation. Given subsequent developments, these issues have become all the more critical, and I am greatly looking forward to in-depth exploration at the 2023 Symposium.

Last year’s Symposium provided unvarnished insights from leading lawyers on a wide range of topics relevant for blockchain technology and digital assets. The Chatham House Rules format allowed for important, honest debates that advanced my thinking. This conference is one of the best available and not to be missed.
