Speaking of the road ahead for #digitalassets and #crypto, I shared some thoughts about it with @jacqmelinek and @TechCrunch

Take a look and let me know what you think about my "five year prediction"!

Lawyers see crypto regulation coming in 2023 because industry needs to rebuild trust https://t.co/wqlpi8nD1y by @jacqmelinek

@ItsMattsLaw The joke here is that “just looking at the law and applying it” is not even close to what most (good) lawyers are called on to do on any given day.

[Joe Castelluccio @jac_esq]

@paul_griffiths These are really great analogies and absolute the right conclusion (former banker-turned M&A lawyer who works with all these players)

[Joe Castelluccio @jac_esq]

@fintechfrank Double down - but in the right way. Focus on the long term, amazing use cases for blockchain, ditch the short term, get rich quick focus on price speculation

[Joe Castelluccio @jac_esq]

@CryptoTaxGuyETH It’s certainly possible, but I hope it is not true

@milesjennings This 👆💯

@caitlincanahey I would go with 4.1 - thought leadership, 2.7 - practice development, 1.2 - biz dev 😎

@VikaBot1 @LizCGil C’mon - if that’s real, that’s insane. no one actually gives a shit what your closing says. Simple rule: just mirror whatever was in the email you are replying to. Mirroring begets positive associations and you don’t have to think about it.

[Joe Castelluccio @jac_esq]

@VikaBot1 @LizCGil No one actually gives a sh!t what your closing is. So a simple rule: mirror whatever was used in the preceding email. Mirroring causes positive associations and you don’t have to think about what to use!

[Joe Castelluccio @jac_esq]

@LizCGil This is good advice. I used to fight with senior attys because my style may be different but that doesn’t make it wrong. Now I have to remind myself… BUT, lack of clarity and value-add in emails isn’t a stylistic difference

[Joe Castelluccio @jac_esq]

@zenlawyerjourn1 @heyitsalexsu I try to use WTF at least once in every mark-up, but only in redlines from the other side

[Joe Castelluccio @jac_esq]

@heyitsalexsu You’re 100% right Alex 😉

[Joe Castelluccio @jac_esq]

@heyitsalexsu Sad but true

[Joe Castelluccio @jac_esq]

@msantoriESQ Need to look for the lawyers that tell you “how” instead of “no”. This is hard in any legal field and agree, crypto especially. But we are out there.

[Joe Castelluccio @jac_esq]

What the FSOC was that?! Our hot take on the FSOC #cryptoassets report and why the things it doesn’t say are just as important as those it does. ⁦@Mayer_Brown⁩ #digitalassets #blockchain #cryptocurrency https://t.co/WpCyshV6wB

And yet they are hiring thousands in enforcement - certainly illustrates priorities

[_gabrielShapir0 @lex_node]

Gensler: thousands of dev teams can just come in and register as securities issuers, I don't know why they're not doing it

reality: SEC can't even keep up with traditional registration pipeline

Dear writers of cold emails: It’s hard to get engagement, I get it. I give you a lot of credit for trying. But lying won’t get your targets to engage. Eg, you don’t already “work with several of my colleagues”. Focus on the value proposition instead.
