BlockShop DC + 0x meetup | Charting A (Legal?) Path Forward for DeFi

⚠️IMPORTANT⚠️ Please note that this event is being held in Washington DC (not San Francisco) and is from 6:00 - 8:30pm EST (not PST).

0x and other open decentralized financial protocols allow developers to create brand new forms of markets that do not fit neatly in the existing regulatory silos. While the legacy legal community spins its wheel debating the events of 2017, developers are building the platforms, assets, and products that may bring DeFi into the mainstream, and wondering how to do so in a way that doesn’t cross the line into illegality.

Join us for a discussion on what are the long term legal issues impacting the DeFi space and fireside chat about scalable solutions to building a healthy industry.

Featured speakers:
• Jason Somensatto - Strategic Legal Counsel at 0x
• Gabriel Shapiro - Attorney at DLx Law LLP
• Adam Finch - Content Marketing Specialist at AARP and 0x Community Ambassador

Space is limited, so please RSVP if you plan to attend.
