Hello Steem! Crypto lawyer looking for questions!steemCreated with Sketch.

Hello Steem community!

I'm a lawyer practicing in Alberta, Canada who is very excited about the impact that blockchain technology is having on how we structure, businesses, finance, and person to person transactions.

My goal is to write weekly, in depth posts about the various legal issues surrounding bitcoin and cryptocurrencies. To my knowledge, there are not many similar resources out there and there are some YUGE!! legal questions around the sector. Some of the future things I want to explore are:

  • Securities law and ICOs
  • Nature of ownership and property
  • Blockchain liability
  • Death and Cryptocurrencies
  • Cryptocurrencies and Tax

If you have an idea for something that I could do some research about, please let me know!

Hey! Good to know!

Hi, my wife and I have been investigating in crypto currency for a few years now with ezbtc.ca. We thought that everything was fine until about a few days ago when I red an article about David Smillie being taken to court and his exchange ezbtc is a scam. For 2 weeks now our account is blocked because they doing renovations with the site. I believe he left Canada. Thier is 6 known cases against him & his company. How do I get my crypto currency moved to a safe place. Is there a lawyer I could talk to?
