Brought to you by the Hawaii Technology Development Corporation (HTDC), Digital Currency Innovation Lab (DCIL) and Entrepreneurs Sandbox, “DCIL Presents:…” is a series of webinars and events designed to educate and raise awareness around virtual currencies.

For this upcoming session, Steven Baum, partner at Friedman LLP will provide a high-level overview of cryptocurrencies and how cryptocurrencies, NFTs, and various tokens are taxed, what the future holds for the industry, and what tax consulting and advisory services Friedman can offer.

At Friedman, Steven contributes to projects spanning a range of industries including digital currency, emerging technology, software, telecommunications and consumer products.

He is a leader in the firm’s Public and Private Company Assurance group, where he helps clients address issues relating to digital currency and emerging technology, and assesses the potential impact of blockchain in various scenarios and industries. Notably, Steven works with colleagues within Friedman to develop software that is among the first generation designed to ensure the accuracy of audits involving digital assets, and to build audit procedures involving a unique class of assets. He brings substantive experience to transactional engagements involving Initial Public Offerings, Regulation A Offerings, Private Placement Offerings, business acquisitions, mergers and other equity or capital raises.
