Missed the morning edition, so apologies for the subscribers expecting this in their inbox this morning. Working for The Digital Chamber is easily my favorite job I’ve ever had. Unfortunately, it may also be the only career path capable of making me nostalgic for BigLaw’s work-life balance. Apologies for the delay. As compensation, this updateContinue reading “Off the Blockchain+, May 25-June 1, 2026”

It finally happened! After delays dating back to mid-January, we finally got updated Senate Banking market structure text which passed the Senate Banking Committee on a bipartisan vote the same week! It is hard to focus on much else with all that going on, since market structure legislation passing would dwarf any other digital assetContinue reading “Off the Blockchain+, May 11-18, 2026”

This update might be a little light as I was busy last week at Consensus and not staying up on the news as much as a normal work week, but with a CLARITY markup set in Senate Banking, I imagine next week is going to be a doozy. This is also later than usual becauseContinue reading “Off the Blockchain+, May 4-11, 2026”

Forgot to schedule this before I went to Consensus events, but now you get an aftenroon edition of the weekly blog! It was another big week of prediction market developments with the comment period closing on the CFTC’s advance notice of proposed rulemaking related to event-contracts, and a new bipartisan bill dropping in the Senate.Continue reading “Off the Blockchain+, April 27-May 4, 2026”

It’s officially Conference Szn, so while two weeks ago virtually all the major crypto legal developments came from the D.C. Blockchain Summit, last week it was all about the Digital Asset Summit (“DAS”) in New York and associated side events (I spoke on a panel at the EY Global Blockchain Summit which you can signContinue reading “Off the Blockchain+, March 23-30, 2026”

It’s DC Blockchain Week! Looking forward to seeing so many of you in D.C. this week. For all the small talk that will be occurring at happy hours and events throughout the week, see below for the legal news from last week. The biggest news the CFTC’s various updates on prediction markets, and the CFTCContinue reading “Off the Blockchain+, March 9-16, 2026”

It was another fairly busy week in crypto legal developments. We got an announcement of future announcements (but it involves prediction markets, so worth more attention than similar pre-announcements), Uniswap won again in a ruling that could be used as persuasive reasoning in other matters against DeFi protocol development companies, and we got a teaserContinue reading “Off the Blockchain+, March 2-9, 2026”

I don’t know if it’s just because there were a ton of developments in areas like stablecoin regulation and prediction markets that I am especially focused on, but this was a crazy week in terms of crypto legal developments. We got long awaited GENIUS Act implementation regulations from the OCC and it’s a doozy andContinue reading “Off the Blockchain+, February 23-March 2, 2026”

When I first started at The Digital Chamber, I was asked if there was anything TDC wasn’t doing that it should be, and my answer was immediately prediction markets. Since then, I have been working with the team to build out what we finally were able to publicly announce as a new working group focusedContinue reading “Off the Blockchain+, February 16-23, 2026”

Hope everybody is enjoyed their President’s Day! Last week, lots of focus was on the two hearings in the House and Senate with SEC Chair Paul Atkins, especially as the Senate continues to work towards market structure legislation which would give the SEC new powers and responsibilities overseeing digital assets in America. In the meantime,Continue reading “Off the Blockchain+, February 9-16, 2026”
