Various cases involving cryptocurrencies have been argued in the Courts here in Singapore with various landmark decisions made. These include whether crytocurrencies constitute property and can be held on trust (ByBit Fintech Ltd v Ho Kai Xin and others), amongst others. 

In 2024, the landmark case of Fantom Foundation Ltd v Multichain Foundation Ltd and anor (aka Fantom), provided a precedence in addressing crypto valuation. If one is unable to recover the original cryptocurrencies, how would one assess the amount of damages suffered? 

Come join in the discussion and understand cryptocurrency valuation better. Walk away with better clarity in this ‘unseen’ area. Consequently, you might even want to challenge yourself and discern how this case law might impact the taxation of crypto assets too. 

SCTP is delighted to be working with WongPartnership’s Commercial & Corporate Disputes Practice Partner, Ms Leow Jiamin, once again. With her in-depth experience in a wide range of disputes, hear how she dissects the case and walk away with new-found knowledge at the start of a new year!  

Programme Outline

  • Gain an overview of the developments of various case laws involving cryptocurrencies
  • Understand the decisions and implications
  • Dive into the intricacies of 2024’s landmark case on cryptocurrency valuation
  • Be familiar with possible implications for businesses incorporating this dynamic asset into its business model for possible growth  

SCTP reserves the right to vary any aspect of the event/ webinar should the situation warrant or due to unforeseen circumstances. This includes but not limited to the following: cancel the programme, change the venue, speakers, programme dates, fees and CPE hours. SCTP will take reasonable effort to notify participants of the changes.
