Episode Description

Join us on our seventeenth episode with Ícaro Avelar, a crypto lawyer who developed his career in the corporate environment, working as an in-house legal counsel for large, multinational Japanese and Austrian companies. He has significant experience in providing legal advice for Web3 projects, being responsible for regulatory enforcement in the companies he advises. Ícaro has made sure to stay on top of all the latest trends in Web3, crypto, and blockchain. He is especially knowledgeable about the role of cryptocurrencies in facilitating illicit activities on the dark web, citing the Silk Road as a cautionary tale of how well-intentioned tech founders can become complicit in crimes such as drug trafficking and arms smuggling should they choose to ignore the illicit activities occurring on their platforms. Most notably, he stresses the importance of being well-versed in the regulatory differences between the U.S. and the EU regarding Web3, crypto, and blockchain.
