Nelson, specialist in international trade and finance, congressional research service; and Mehrsa Baradaran, professor of law, University of California, Irvine School of Law.

They discuss crypto regulations, the unbanked, blockchain entrepreneurs, crypto-friendly jurisdictions that are attracting top talent, countries that are cracking down on crypto and territories that are losing blockchain developers due to regulatory uncertainty.
