The book explains legal fundamentals such as cryptoasset regulation in the UK, Europe and the USA, and legal principles relating to blockchain and distributed ledger technologies. It clearly covers key concepts including smart contracts, payments, tokenisation, central bank digital currencies, stablecoins, digital asset exchanges, wallets, lending transactions, security interests, decentralised finance, NFTs, fundraising, venture capital investment, taxation, intellectual property, and restructuring and insolvency.
