1/ As U.S. regulators continue their war on crypto, many founders are thinking about geofencing as a compliance strategy. It can work, but only if it's done right. That’s why @dbarabander and I wrote this Practical Guide to Geofencing: https://blog.variant.fund/newsletter-legal-regulatory-affairs

I am unaware of an area of law with more bang for its buck for crypto apps than a website’s terms of service. I know terms of service are not the most exciting thing in the world, but if done right, they can make a huge difference in legal liability exposure. The key issue apps run into in this area of law is whether the terms are enforceable on the app’s users. So, I looked into tips for increasing the likelihood of enforceability. Here’s a thread with the TLDR.

As a lawyer who codes (or as @jesse likes to say, I read “dumb contracts and smart contracts”) it’s been a mission of mine to meld the two worlds I’m passionate about: tech and law. This is why I love being a lawyer in the crypto space, because most legal issues are also technical issues. You cannot separate them.

Over my years investing in marketplaces, I've realized there are marketplaces that should exist but that don’t, because of limitations in the systems they are built on. Crypto has potential answers to these problems, enabling new marketplaces to emerge. https://variant.fund/articles/crypto-net-new-marketplaces/
