Zero Clarity: Regulatory Compliance in DeFi. Legal Meetup by Zerion

It's Time for an Open Discussion

Zerion is excited to host the “Zero Clarity: Regulatory Compliance in DeFi” meetup, a unique event designed for those who are overwhelmed by the ever-changing nature of DeFi regulations and are doing their best to thrive in the decentralized world.

Zerion aims to create an environment for open and transparent discussions of disturbing legal matters. We believe that every participant attending the meetup has a wealth of experience and insights into DeFi regulation, balancing compliance issues and promoting business interests.

The Agenda

Let's navigate the regulatory landscape and bring some clarity to it.

9:30 - 10:00		Guest gathering. Breakfast
10:00 - 11:20		How to stay DeFI? Moderator: Sarah Compani (Aleph Avocats) The main block is devoted to drawing the redline between regulated and non-regulated entities and discussing how decentralised entities can stay legally decentralised. As regulators become increasingly concerned about the activities of Dapps, DEXs, and aggregators (recent Wells Notice to Uniswap, Consensys fights back the SEC), the main question for companies is how to stay unregulated.
11:40 - 13:00		Marketing Compliance in Crypto Moderator: Darya Shemet (Zerion Inc) How can projects promote their services without crossing into regulated activities? What entities fall under the UK marketing regulations? Is it safe to promote memecoins on social media?
13:00 - 14:00		Lunch
14:00 - 15:20		Compliance with Sanctions and AML in DeFi Moderator: Filipp Petkevitch (Buzko.Krasnov) This topic will cover strategies for adhering to global sanctions requirements and anti-money laundering (AML) regulations within the DeFi ecosystem. The EU is enhancing AML regulations that affect even non- custodial wallets and other DApps, and the USA is scrutinizing the AML and Sanctions control. The main question is who has to adopt KYC and Travel rules. Is it possible to be compliant without implementing KYC?
15:40 - 17:00		The Future of DeFi Regulations Moderator: Vyara Savova (European Crypto Initiative) An open discussion on anticipated regulatory developments affecting the DeFi sector and how businesses can prepare for these changes. Let's navigate the regulatory landscape and bring some clarity to it.
