Key takeaways:
  • Disney is seeking legal counsel to navigate NFTs, DeFi, and web3 – with a huge IP stable this could be an exciting development.
  • If national currencies collapse, could crypto take their place?
  • Smart contracts and decentralisation aren’t making lawyers redundant – in a fast-moving regulatory environment, they’re more important than ever (but we would say that).
