Virtual currencies, or cryptoassets, cover the use and trading of digital tokens, including how they are held, transferred and used in commercial activity. A solicitor in this area helps businesses comply with financial regulation, draft and review token sale terms, advise on AML/CTF rules, set up and audit wallets, and manage disputes with counterparties or platforms. They also prepare notices, assess risk, and advise on import/export, tax implications, and reporting obligations to authorities such as the FCA and HMRC.
What a solicitor handles in these matters
In these matters, the solicitor handles regulatory assessments, drafting and negotiation of terms for token offerings or services, KYC/AML compliance arrangements, governance and cybersecurity measures, and dispute response with exchanges or clients, all within the UK framework and with attention to evolving rules for cryptoassets and related services.
