PROGRAM DESCRIPTION<br />

The 2016 Digital Currency and Blockchain <strong>Technology</strong> National Institute will take place on April 1, 2016,<br />

in Washington, DC. This special program is dedicated to in-depth analysis of the emerging legal issues<br />

and the latest legal events concerning digital currencies, like Bitcoin, and blockchain technology. It will<br />

be an informative and exciting opportunity for anyone interested in better understanding the interplay<br />

of the law and digital currencies and blockchain technology. The speakers and panels will explore these<br />

substantive topics:<br />

• Blockchain innovations and opportunities<br />

• Global AML and regulatory efforts<br />

• Recent law enforcement actions<br />

In doing so, they will broadly cover these areas of interest:<br />

• What are digital currency and blockchain technology and how do they work<br />

• How are businesses (including start-ups), law enforcement, and regulators approaching digital<br />

currency and blockchain technology<br />

• What the future might hold<br />

We are delighted to announce that panelists include an array of legal leaders in their respective<br />

fields, such as John Beccia (General Counsel and Chief Compliance Officer of Circle), Serrin Turner<br />
