Hi lawcasters! Just a quick plug because I think a lot of you may be interested in Dex in the City -- Unchained's new weekly podcast focused on legal developments related to DeFi. The first episode dropped earlier this week and I highly recommend -- especially for anyone else working (or just interested) in the enforcement/litigation area of crypto law. The show is hosted by three terrific lawyers who will be familiar to many of you: TuongVy Le, Katherine Kirkpatrick Bos and Jessi Brooks. Who knows, maybe we can even leverage our listenership into bringing them onto Farcaster/L&P. https://unchainedcrypto.com/dex-in-the-city/

WSJ is reporting that the SEC and FINRA have launched investigations into numerous digital asset treasuries (DATs) for potential insider trading. Stay safe out there! Also, just a quick reminder that you should NEVER speak with regulators or law enforcement without counsel.

I'll be in New York on August 12 to attend Ethereum NYC: NextFin Summit. It should be a great networking opportunity for anyone working (or seeking to work) in crypto law/policy. The event brings together founders, policy makers, regulators, financial institutions, and even a few lawyers to discuss accelerating blockchain adoption and Ethereum's role in shaping the future of finance. SPEAKERS Tomasz Stańczak -- Executive Director of the Ethereum Foundation Tom Lee -- Head of Research at Fundstrat Capital & unofficial Ethereum delegate to CNBC Vivek Raman -- CEO of Etherealize Arjun Sethi -- Co-CEO at Kraken Chris Giancarlo -- Former CFTC Chair & "CryptoDad" Hong Kim -- Co-Founder & CTO of Bitwise Asset Management Michael Sonnenshein -- President of Securitize . . . and many more. If you will be attending (or are located in New York), please drop me a line. I'd love to connect in person. https://lu.ma/ozlqxrph?tk=M2z8n1
