We invite you to join us for a webinar regarding investing in crypto and NFTs, avoiding fraud and protecting your legal and reputational interests.
Trading
in cryptocurrencies and non-fungible tokens (NFTs) has taken hold of businesses and individuals alike as an exciting new area for investment, pushing the overall market cap of cryptocurrencies to $3 trillion in November.
Crypto-exchanges and their regulatory regimes are in a critical period of transition. While investors can access a platform anywhere in the world, service providers, or their regulators, are not equal in terms of investor protection – for example their ability to freeze client accounts and appropriately conduct internal investigations.
For
example, the developer behind a recent NFT project, 'Evil Ape,' suddenly disappeared along with its Twitter account and website, siphoning off $2.7 million of investor funds in the process. Reuniting those who have fallen victim to this fraud with their money can be a long and challenging process, often involving collaboration between crypto exchanges or marketplaces, law enforcement and legal representatives — and requiring specialist insight and substantial technical and legal experience.
In
our upcoming webinar, which will take place from 4:00pm-5:00pm UK time on 1st February, FTI Consulting representatives and experts from Rosenblatt Law and TRM Labs will discuss how investors in cryptocurrencies and NFTs can protect their regulatory and reputational interests by seeking professional advice, using risk monitoring and investigative tools and exercising vigilance when making investment decisions.
Our panel will share their observations on the key challenges and opportunities investors must keep in mind, as well as inviting questions from attendees.
