"Back to the Classroom: Exchanges and Cryptocurrency Markets"
Yesha Yadav
Associate Dean and Robert Belton Director of Diversity, Equity and Community; Professor of Law; Faculty Co-director, LL.M. Program
Law School
Flynn Auditorium
Professor Yadav explores how a simple idea from the 1790s - an exchange - has come to become a centralizing and dominant actor within cryptocurrency markets. The big question now is whether a cryptocurrency exchange can also provide a stabilizing force within an otherwise frontier market, or does is it instead contribute to its risks? Even as crypto exchanges have lent their names to NBA Arenas and dominate Super Bowl ads, how much do we really know about how they work? For us as lawyers, does their size, scale and impact offer a way forward for policymakers to use them as quasi-regulators to oversee a market that has, thus far, managed to avoid any real oversight?
