Tectonic Law is pleased to see that Ross Ulbricht has been released from prison—an outcome long overdue, even if it comes from a controversial source, such as a pardon. Our founding attorney, Hannah Stitt, addressed the due process violations and broader implications of Ulbricht's case, as well as the intersection of blockchain, regulation, and equity, in the presentation Using Blockchain to Build a Decentralized, Self-Regulating, and Equitable Cannabis Economy at the Practicing Law Institute on July 13, 2023. The presentation was created and moderated by Khurshid Khoja, whose work highlights how decentralized technologies can foster fairer, more transparent systems. At Tectonic Law, we share those values. While the uncertain journey under this Administration is only just getting started, last week's news is a reminder that change is possible, even if it takes an unexpected path. #TectonicLaw #RossUlbricht #Decentralization #Equity #IntellectualProperty #AttorneyEthics #Cryptocurrency #Blockchain

Didn’t happen on “Day 1”, but that it actually happened at all (and on Day 2 no less) is genuinely great news to those who’ve studied Ross Ulbricht’s prosecution.
