Course Description
This course will address legal and policy issues related to cryptocurrency.

We will connect cryptocurrency to tax, criminal law, smart contracts, and other legal topics. The course is meant to be complementary to, and not mutually exclusive with, Cryptocurrency Regulation (SC) (LAW 7808), which focuses on SEC regulation of cryptocurrency as a security.
