Our team is experienced in advising individuals and businesses on these emerging issues. We work with start-ups and established clients across a range of sectors, including fintech, crypto, payments, blockchain infrastructure development, marketplaces, investment engines and the decentralized finance ecosystem.

We assist with complex regulatory, tax and commercial matters, including:

For example, we advised a large corporate on its digital assets strategy and on the implications of the new rules surrounding the sale of cryptoassets to UK consumers. We also assisted a major multi-national with its global compliance programme around DLT and cryptoassets, including advice on sanctions compliance and money laundering risk assessment.

Alternatively, we act for individuals who have acquired cryptoassets and are concerned about the impact on their taxes. We help them understand their position with HMRC, including how to make claims for losses, gains, and allowances.

We are a member firm of CryptoUK, the UK’s first cryptocurrency and digital asset trade association. We have been a driving force behind the development of the sector since 2017, contributing to key policy initiatives such as the Kalifa Review and the Crypto Assets Task Force, and playing a key role in developing legislation such as the Travel Rule.
