Aaron Krowne is an attorney who arrived at the practice of law following a career in computing and technology, where he worked as a research data scientist.
He founded a series of online startup ventures, several of which attained global recognition. His pre-law career also includes establishing multiple online libel law precedents and participating in the early development of the Creative Commons IP license system.
He was one of the first lawyers globally to focus on blockchain, initially familiarizing himself with Bitcoin and its underlying technology in its early days.
Today, he advises a diverse array of blockchain and “crypto” companies, covering areas ranging from money services and AML law to NFTs, and works at the forefront of the professionalization and expansion of the rapidly-growing cryptocurrency finance and “DeFi” space.
Aaron joins Andy to discuss blockchain law, regulations, the regulation by enforcement approach of many US agencies, and the Financial Innovation and Technology for the 21st Century Act.
