Show Notes

James Swarbrick is the director of Swarbricks, a Bitcoin-accepting law firm in New Zealand. We talk about his thoughts from a legal perspective about the recent collapse of the Dasset crypto exchange, as well as discuss an article he wrote about how the hack of another exchange, Cryptopia, helped develop law in New Zealand.
Finally we talk about the role of self-custody and inheritance planning for Bitcoin.

Great show, really enjoyed it. Luckily i only lost a few stray dollars with Dasset. Any recommendations for an alternative exchange in NZ? I rarely sell, but occasionally needs must.
