Top crypto lawyer is saying that the era of crypto foundations are FINALLY over. Instead, use the following entities for your next crypto startup: — Regular Delaware C-corps (https://www.skala.io/us-c-corp) — Public Benefit Corporations (https://www.skala.io/us-public-benefit) — Regular Offshore Companies (Panama being the most popular, imho: https://www.skala.io/panama) — Wyoming DAO LLC or DUNA: https://www.skala.io/wyoming — BORGs (https://www.metalex.tech/) Learn more here: https://www.skala.io/startup-jurisdictions-guide

Founder asked, we built. Here is another must-have legal template for founders: Independent Contractor Agreement (ICA). Simple. Clear. Ready to sign. Link in the first comment. https://farcaster.xyz/dwr.eth/0xef07b128

You can download the Word version without signing up — or create a Skala account and use our guided form to fill it out and send a signing link to your contractor. All in minutes, if not seconds. https://www.skala.io/ica

You can also request your contractor to upload an ID and W-8 or W-9 forms — super useful for US-based companies. You may find it useful in this context, @dwr.eth. https://farcaster.xyz/dwr.eth/0xef07b128

At Skala, our mission is to build the best legal platform for startups in the world. Yes, that means bringing in AI. And we’re working on it. But let’s not put the cart before the horse. First, we need to get the basics right. Last week, we launched our standard NDA. Today, we’re releasing another essential template: Independent Contractor Agreement (ICA). The main use case: hiring a freelancer (developer, marketer, analyst, etc.) on a monthly, weekly, or hourly basis. It’s simple, clear, and to the point — no flashy legal design, just what you need. Link below in the 1st comment. You can download the Word version without signing up — or create a Skala account and use our guided form to fill it out and send a signing link to your contractor. All in minutes, if not seconds. More to come. Thanks for reading!

A comprehensive course on AI Law and Policy should include: - Basics of model training and inference - Why chips are so important and how US controls them (via De Minimis U.S. Content (§ 734.4) and Foreign Direct Product Rule as applied to chips and AI models), what was The AI Diffusion Rule and why it was rescinded recently - Which data could or could not be used for training (privacy, etc.) - Fair use in the context of model training (NYT v. OpenAI, Thomson Reuters v. ROSS Intelligence) - Basics of The EU AI Act as an example of the first comprehensive regulation (perhaps not the best regulation, though) - Why certain AI startups want to use non-profits or public benefit companies and how things can go wrong (OpenAI board saga as a case study) - Whether and how lawyers, doctors and other regulated professions should use AI (ABA Formal Opinion 512 on GenAI) Just some ideas. The list can go on.

The website itself is built on Weblfow. But the design for both the website and platform is done in house, no templates.

Yes, we’ve studied it carefully, and found some room for improvement.

We’re calling it the No-Nonsense Mutual NDA. One could call it the NNM-NDA, but that sounds more like a rave drug than a legal document. So let’s just go with the Skala NDA.

Key terms are shown in the image above, but here’s what makes this template really useful: - Download Word file instantly (no email needed) - Or sign to Skala to generate and sign it (bye DocuSign) - Just 2 pages: key terms on page 1, boilerplate on page 2 - Like YC’s SAFE, the template says it’s identical to the version published on the website. - Choose applicable law: NY, UK, SG, or UAE - Choose public courts and private arbitration

I always wished there was a standard NDA — like YC’s standard SAFE. But there wasn’t one. So we built it. Meet the Skala NDA: fast, mutual, no-nonsense. Bookmark it — the quickest way to get an NDA signed. https://www.skala.io/nda
