Arm Yourself Against Crypto Regulatory Uncertainty

By Kristin L. Burnett
November 01, 2022

Since Bitcoin and Ethereum gained widespread traction in the late 2010s, companies have been exploring ways to enter the growing digital asset market and venture into Web 3.0. As of June 2022, institutions hold 6%-7% of Bitcoin's total supply alone. As inflation and the ongoing pandemic have opened the eyes of investors to the future of finance and the promise of digital assets, institutional investment into Web 3.0 projects and cryptocurrencies such as Ethereum will only grow.

The promise that the crypto and digital assets markets bring, however, comes bundled with uncertainty — especially on the regulatory front. Until jurisdictions adopt unified and consistent frameworks that account for the unique facets and features of cryptocurrencies, institutional investors and other market participants must keep abreast of ever-changing, dynamic laws to avoid sanctions and fines.
