I am still recovering from D.C. Blockchain Week and all the events throughout the week, but lucky for me, most the major legal developments from last week were announced live at the D.C. Blockchain Summit, which made it easier over the weekend to gather everything and put this update together. The biggest story was theContinue reading “Off the Blockchain+, March 16-23, 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”
Off the Blockchain+, March 2-9, 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”
Off the Blockchain+, February 16-23, 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”
Off the Blockchain+, January 26-February 2, 2026
While everybody is avoiding looking at the weekly crypto charts, the legal developments did not slow down with market structure legislation clearing a crucial hurdle in the Senate and a wild story regarding allegations that the son of a U.S. government third-party custodian made off with a haul of seized crypto. And both the CFTCContinue reading “Off the Blockchain+, January 26-February 2, 2026”
Off the Blockchain+, December 8-15, 2025
This was quite possibly the busiest week in terms of major crypto legal developments since I started practicing in the space in 2020. It is hard to be upset, as they are (almost) all positive and move the industry forward significantly but, like, can the agencies maybe talk and spread these out so poor PolicyContinue reading “Off the Blockchain+, December 8-15, 2025”
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”
