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”

Off the Blockchain+, February 23-March 2, 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”

I didn’t hear no bell! Despite crypto prices continuing to fall along with larger market pullbacks across assets, the legal developments continued forward. After two weeks of fast-paced legal developments, it was a relatively slow week with lots of minor updates such as the Whitehouse trying to get the parties in a room to solveContinue reading “Off the Blockchain+, February 2-9, 2026”

It’s officially the New Year, and I couldn’t be more excited to be back in what is sure to be a legislative and administrative rulemaking sprint for Q1 2026. It was another slow holiday week without any stories warranting “major story” attention, but we have a (semi) confirmed date for market structure mark-up in theContinue reading “Off the Blockchain+, December 29, 2025-January 5, 2026”
Off the Blockchain+, November24-December 1, 2025
Hope everybody in the U.S. had way too much turkey and football on the couch this past week for Thanksgiving! In a short week, there were still quite a few legal developments including another SEC no action letter for a DePIN token launch, and some venture capital token sale shenanigans for a fairly large L2Continue reading “Off the Blockchain+, November24-December 1, 2025”

The big story last week was the criminal trial over against two (alleged) MEV exploiters ending in a mistrial, giving another datapoint on where the line is drawn between “code-is-law” and fraud. Additionally, people (including the Digital Chamber) had lots to say to Treasury on how the GENIUS Act should be implemented, and the firstContinue reading “Off the Blockchain+, November 3-10, 2025”

It was another busy week in crypto law. I was personally focused on catching up on the prediction markets vs. state gaming regulator lawsuits, another of which was filed last week in New York. But additionally, there were developments in the public markets despite the SEC being largely unstaffed during the ongoing government shutdown, andContinue reading “Off the Blockchain+, October 27-November 3, 2025”

It has been awesome, and I am very thankful for all the subscribers and readers who have reached out to give suggestions to improve the updatesContinue reading “Off the Blockchain+, September 29-October 6, 2025”
