Legal Advice to a FinTech Start-up on the structuring of a Bitcoin Mining Business Model.

Zürcher Rechtsanwälte AG advised a Swiss FinTech start-up comprehensively on the development and legal structuring of an innovative business model in the field of Bitcoin mining. The business model enables customers to participate in Bitcoin mining and to receive mining rewards without requiring technical expertise or owning their own mining infrastructure. The entire technical infrastructure is provided by the mining operator.

Zürcher Rechtsanwälte AG supported the mining company in particular with the regulatory assessment of the business model as well as with the legal drafting and implementation of the mining agreements with customers.

Sebastian Hepp (Partner, Blockchain / Digital Assets) has many years of experience advising crypto and FinTech companies with blockchain-based business models and acted as lead counsel for the legal structuring and implementation of the mining agreements.
