This session will explore the complexities and opportunities involved in executing high-value transactions in the digital asset space. Using Thompson Hine’s recent representation of SharpLink Gaming, Inc. in a $425 million private placement—funded through a combination of fiat currency and Ethereum—as a case study, we’ll examine key structuring considerations, regulatory implications and the evolving role of crypto in capital markets. The discussion will also touch on trends in crypto venture funding and the innovative strategies companies are using to raise capital and manage digital asset treasuries.
