Coinbase Law with Coinbase CLO Brian Brooks

Coinbase sits atop a short list of the largest and most critically important companies in crypto - a status they’ve achieved through a mix of product innovation and legal and regulatory compliance. As Chief Legal Officer, Brian Brooks is tasked with allowing Coinbase to continue to innovate while remaining within the good graces of governments and regulators, both domestic and abroad.

In this conversation, you will get a glimpse into how one of crypto’s biggest firms continues to operate compliantly in a space fraught with legal grey areas. Brian and Ryan discuss the formation of the Crypto Ratings Council and how Coinbase engages with regulators from the SEC to FATF. Brian also reveals that you might be seeing security tokens listed on Coinbase sooner than you think.
