The crypto industry faces intense scrutiny, and experienced legal advice is essential.
With the SEC, CFTC, FinCEN, and other regulators placing pressure on crypto, entrepreneurs can’t afford to neglect legal compliance.
Start right and build a foundation for enduring success.
Securities Law
Anyone building on the blockchain should be aware of securities laws; the SEC has been rigorous in this industry for several years, especially regarding initial coin offerings (ICOs) and DeFi lending products. If launching a token, exchange, wallet, or dApp, be sure to consult with an experienced cryptocurrency lawyer first!
AML and KYC Compliance
The SEC isn’t the only government agency that can intervene with crypto businesses. FinCEN also enforces strict requirements related to Anti-Money Laundering (AML) and Know Your Customer (KYC) procedures. Non-compliance could incur harsh penalties, but our experienced cryptocurrency attorneys can guide you through.
MSB and MTL Licences
Many operators in the crypto industry, from exchanges to traders to Bitcoin ATMs, are considered Money Service Businesses. This type of business may need a federal MSB license, as well as a state-issued Money Transmitter License (MTL). A cryptocurrency lawyer can help determine if you qualify as an MSB and, if eligible, assist in obtaining the required licenses. Contact us online or call (847) 580-1279 to get started.
Advertising Compliance
Both the FTC and SEC wield authority to impose significant fines or even sue your business for illegal advertising practices. Your company can also be legally liable for claims made by affiliate marketers. Our team can review all your marketing and advertising materials to ensure they adhere to the law, helping you avoid legal issues that could jeopardize your business.
