Tokens of WisdomEpisode 66: Phil Graham, HarneysEpisode 66: Phil Graham, Harneys When I set out to do this show, my goal was to arm aspiring fund managers with the information they need to launch and operate a fund. In the legal realm, I happen to possess a lot of that information from my day job, but there’s so much more that goes into launching and operating a fund. And wise though I may be, my area of expertise doesn’t cover it all. So I’m going to bring in some friends to share their wisdom i...2025-07-0950 min

Tokens of WisdomEpisode 65: The Zombie Episode (Three Rungs of the Regulatory Ladder)Episode 65: The Zombie Episode (Three Rungs of the Regulatory Ladder) For as long as I’ve worked in crypto, the industry has been plagued by the dreaded REGULATORY UNCERTAINTY. That is, apparently, until the last couple months. All of a sudden I’m seeing clients putting stuff like “Regulatory Clarity Achieved!” in marketing decks and celebrating the demise of uncertainty’s reign. Maybe pump the brakes a bit. I don’t think we’re quite there yet. The new SEC has certainly moved quickly to dismantle the anti-crypto reputation its predecessors...2025-07-0208 min

Tokens of WisdomEpisode 59: Peeling LayersEpisode 59: Peeling LayersAt the federal level, the tables are turning faster than at a vintage Tiesto performance: it’s honestly hard to keep up with how quickly the federal government has done a total 180 on crypto.Key Points From This Episode:What was the now-disbanded National Cryptocurrency Enforcement Team?How is the United States similar to an onion?What’s happening beneath the federal layer, at various state regulators?NY, CA and OR flexing their enforcement muscle to the collective groan of the crypto industry.Disclaimer:2025-04-2107 min

Tokens of WisdomEpisode 58: Yet Another CTA Update (Yawn)Episode 58: Yet Another CTA Update (Yawn) Last time I spoke to you about the CTA, I said I wanted to discuss it about as much as I wanted a hole in the head. A little over a month later, nothing has changed. In my mood that is.But alas, much has changed in the world of required BO reporting, so here I am standing in front my mic and talking about it again.

Tokens of WisdomEpisode 55: Sunshine and Rainbows…from the SECEpisode 55: Sunshine and Rainbows…from the SEC. Just a couple short weeks ago I told you all about President Trump’s executive order on crypto, which was heavy on happy speak and light on substance. Of course, literally as I was recording that episode, the SEC started putting its money where its mouth is. Indeed, since I started speaking into that mic a couple weeks ago the SEC has: Repealed SAB 121, restarted its crypto task force, paused the suit against Binance, and straight-up dropped lawsuits or investigations into Coinbase, RobinHo...2025-02-2711 min

Tokens of WisdomEpisode 53: A New SheriffA New Sheriff Episode 53: Show Notes. We went three whole days into Trump Administration 2.0 without the creation of a strategic bitcoin reserve, an announcement ending all federal lawsuits against crypto industry participants, and without any major crypto news. In fact, well into day 4 of the administration, the scoreboard looked like this: Trump Meme coins: 2; Executive action supporting crypto: 0. Then on January 23, 2025, Trump issued an Executive Order titled, “STRENGTHENING AMERICAN LEADERSHIP IN DIGITAL FINANCIAL TECHNOLOGY”. Key Points From This Epis...2025-01-2407 min

Tokens of WisdomEpisode 52: AI Policies for Investment AdvisersEveryone wants in on the AI craze – in addition to being the latest buzzy trend, AI is a technology that can actually think for you (or at least, trick people into thinking it’s thinking). Given the potential time and money savings AI can generate, a business owner like you might be negligent for not exploring how it could help their business.

Tokens of WisdomEpisode 50: CTA EnjoinedGood news just keeps on flowing out of the federal judiciary, as a District Court in Texas issued a nationwide preliminary injunction on Dec 3 enjoining the enforcement of the Corporate Transparency Act and the FINCEN beneficial ownership reporting requirement.This means that means that FOR NOW, companies do not have to file beneficial ownership reports with FINCEN under the corporate transparency act.

Tokens of WisdomEpisode 48: Can the President Fire the SEC Chair?There is a presidential election happening right now, and regardless of your political views, if you’re listening to this, you probably like crypto. In fact, the election-related question I get most frequently goes something like this: If Trump wins, will he really replace Gary Gensler on day one as promised? Or If Harris wins, will she replace Gensler as quickly as Trump would? This of course begs the question: Can the president fire the SEC chair? Turns out, there is significant legal uncertainty around how an SEC chairperson can be removed. Key...2024-11-0115 min

Tokens of WisdomEpisode 47: The “Come in and Register” FallacyOn my last episode, I went through a few common ill-conceived soundbites people wield against crypto generally and calmly explained why they’re a bunch of crap.But there was one I didn’t touch last time because I thought it was deserving of a little more spotlight. Haters sometimes claim that the crypto industry doesn’t want any regulation, and is spending oodles of cash buying off politicians to prevent the government from regulating crypto. Not true.The crypto industry certainly spends big money on lobbying, but it’s using those dollars to beg the gove...2024-10-1614 min

Tokens of WisdomEpisode 46: For the Crypto SkepticI keep hearing noise from talking heads denigrating and dismissing crypto with pithy ill-conceived soundbites. It’s the kind of thing you expect to hear from the Gary Genslers and Elizabeth Warrens of the world, but I also hear it from people whose opinions I usually respect.Inspiration for today’s episode came from the 9/20/24 episode of Real Time with Bill Maher, where Bill and his panel fall all over each other to out-hate on crypto, using (to borrow Kamala Harris’s favorite phrase): the same old tired playbook written by the likes of Gensler and Warren.2024-10-0212 min

Tokens of WisdomEpisode 45: Digital Asset Manager SEC SettlementThe digital asset fund manager community is up in arms about the SEC’s latest shenanigans against Galois Capital, and I’m here to tell you; so am I!The SEC alleged three separate violations, and gave us zero helpful detail/analysis/guidance that might let other asset managers avoid similar acitons.Key Points From This Episode:What violations did the SEC allege Galois Capital committed?What does a settlement mean?Why so much secrecy?Shout out to Laura Shin.A few rays of sunshine.Di...2024-09-1310 min

Tokens of WisdomEpisode 43: Pay-to-Play RuleQuick hit today to remind investment advisers about the SEC’s pay-to-play rule; formally known as Advisers Act Rule 206(4)-5. You may have heard that there’s a little election coming up here in November, and you may be emptying the piggy bank in support of your candidates of choice.

Tokens of WisdomEpisode 41: Supreme Court SmackdownOn back-to-back days in late June, the US Supreme Court issued two decisions that reasserted judicial primacy in statutory interpretation and dealt a blow to executive authority. The cases were SEC vs Jarkesy and Loper Bright Enterprises v. Raimondo, and together they demonstrate a Supreme Court deeply skeptical of the administrative state and of an executive branch usurping powers that belong to the judiciary.

Tokens of WisdomEpisode 40: Florida Private Fund ExemptionLast summer, the Sunshine State passed into law a new private fund exemption for investment advisers operating in Florida. It went into effect on Oct 1 last year, and thus FL has belatedly joined the community of states taking a lighter regulatory stance toward private fund managers.

Tokens of WisdomEpisode 39: SAB 121It’s not everyday that I do a podcast episode about super technical banking rules.

Go back and listen to Episode 21 if you want to waste your time hearing all the details of this now-defunct rule. Special Note: you may notice while listening to today’s episode that I mistakenly refer listeners to Episode 29 for my full PFAR breakdown (I refer to “Episode 29” several times). Turns out, I’m even worse at math than I thought, because my PFAR episode is # 21; not 29…Rather than delay the episode and re-record, I’m alerting you he...2024-06-0707 min

Tokens of WisdomEpisode 37: Tornadoes, Samourais and Money TransmittersToday’s episode is all about the government’s attempts to jam the square peg of crypto mixers Tornado Cash and Samourai Wallet into the round hole of unlicensed “money transmitters”.But to grasp the full story, we need to understand some basic terms. Like “money transmitter”.Key Points From This Episode:What are (were?) Tornado Cash and Samourai Wallet?What is a “money transmitter”?The regulatory area where crypto guidance from the federal government has been relatively clear and proactive.Why these actions undercut that seeming clarity.A soapbox moment about “due process” and f...2024-05-2812 min

Tokens of WisdomEpisode 36: Adviser IntegrationLast episode we dissected the SEC’s “venture capital fund” definition and discussed how, if an adviser manages only VC funds, there is no AUM ceiling on its ability to remain exempt from registration. If that same adviser manages money for any non-Venture capital fund, it has to register as an investment adviser once AUM hits $150mm. This can lead some less scrupulous investment advisers to try to “game” the system by forming new adviser entities, thinking they can skirt regulation by forming new legal entities.Well, not so fast. The wool can’t be pulled over Uncle Sam’s...2024-05-1609 min

Additionally, they look...2024-05-091h 06

Tokens of WisdomEpisode 35: Venture Capital FundsLike I mentioned back in Episode 2, there are some down sides to relying on the private fund exemption – at the SEC level, the only “down” side is an AUM ceiling after which you have register (150mm…see ep 32). But many states require extra stuff if you’re managing any 3c1 funds: this varies by state, but many impose annual audit requirements and either increased investor accreditation thresholds, restrictions on who can pay performance-based comp, or both. EXCEPT those restrictions don’t apply to managers whose only clients are “venture capital funds”.So what is a “venture capital fund”? Tune it to...2024-04-2511 min

Tokens of WisdomEpisode 34: Management Company Operating AgreementsOne of the underappreciated tasks a new fund manager needs to complete is its management company operating agreement. This is the agreement among the principals of the management company that controls how the entity is governed, how economics are split among the principals, etc.Key Points From This Episode:Why is it important to paper these agreements?Why they sometimes get put on the back burner.Brief discussion of the four primary areas to consider:Economics;Corporate governance;Exit provisions; andRestrictive covenants. Disclaimer:T...2024-04-0907 min

Tokens of WisdomEpisode 33: Tokenized FundsRecently, it seems like tokenizing things is all the rage. Everybody wants to talk about tokenizing real estate or art or securities or any other “real world asset”. Heck, even “RWA” has become a commonly understood acronym to describe things that exist in tangible form, as opposed to just digitally. Well, private investment funds are no different, and I’ve noticed an uptick recently in managers inquiring about tokenizing their fund offerings. Today’s episode is all about tokenized funds.Key Points From This Episode:What are RWAs?What is a tokenized fu...2024-03-1209 min

Tokens of WisdomEpisode 30: CTA, Part DeuxA couple months ago, I did an episode discussing the Corporate Transparency and concluded that, while it’s annoying and kinda stinks, it’s not that big of a deal.

Tokens of WisdomEpisode 28: Management Company StructuresI talk to a lot of 1st time fund managers and one common mistake I hear is that they think the fund entity is their business. But it’s not. The fund is a passive investment vehicle. It might be the focus of your business; it might be your business’s only revenue source; it might take up almost all of your time; but your management company – not your fund – is your business. In today’s episode we’re talking all about management company structuring considerations. Scintillating stuff!Key Points...2023-12-1412 min

Tokens of WisdomEpisode 26: WaterfallsToday we’re keeping the performance-based comp discussion going and looking at “Carried Interest” or “Carry” for short: performance-based compensation for closed-end funds – VC, PE, etc. One big structural difference from open-ended funds is that the GP typically doesn’t get performance-based comp on paper (i.e., unrealized) gains. For a refresher on closed-end vs open-end funds, listen to Episode 9.Instead, proceeds from monetization events get distributed among the partners in proportions dictated by a complicated cascading mechanism in the fund’s offering documents. That cascading mechanism is called: The Waterfall!Key Points From...2023-11-0710 min

Tokens of WisdomEpisode 23: ExpensesWhat’s a fund expense vs a manager expense? Fund managers are often curious about what expenses they will be responsible for, and what expenses the fund will cover itself. This is especially important for first-time managers forecasting cash needs for their new management company business.For the most part, if you accurately and fully disclose to fund investors what expenses the fund will bear, the fund is able to bear those expenses. But what’s typical? What will investors expect, and what might cause them to run for the hills? Listen up to find out! Hint: they...2023-09-2713 min

Tokens of WisdomEpisode 21: Private Fund Advisers RuleBig news in Private Fund Land, as the SEC Commissioners on voted August 23rd to adopt one of the more significant new private fund-specific rules in recent memory. This one was about 18 months in the making (the rule was first proposed in early 2022), and while the final rule pared back the most overreaching aspects of the proposal, it still has far-reaching impacts that will alter how pretty much all private fund advisers do business. This episode is a high-level summary of the more significant aspects of the 660-page rule.Key Points From This Episode:2023-08-2917 min

Tokens of WisdomEpisode 20: Non-U.S. Fund ManagersIf you’re a fund manager based outside the United States with no operations in the U.S., you may think American securities laws don’t extend to you. But if you’re seeking to raise capital from U.S. investors, you are wrong. As soon as you sell fund interests to even a single U.S. investor, you are selling securities in the United States (and you need to comply with the Securities Act), your fund is an investment company (and you need to comply with the Investment Company Act), and you – the manager – are acting as an investment...2023-08-1009 min
