Blockchain Technology

Shipkevich recognizes the rapid advancement of financial technology (FinTech) in all industries and the need for a blockchain or virtual currency attorney. Right now, digital currencies are becoming a new way of raising capital for innovative project ideas. A Shipkevich virtual currency attorney understands the benefits of hosting digital currency offerings, from its implementation through distributive ledger technology, or blockchain, to simply its efficient and industry changing fundraising method. However, as federal agencies like the Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) are getting more involved in overseeing digital currency implementation, it becomes increasingly challenging for companies to sort out the legalities of hosting digital currency offerings in the United States.
