Marcus is a corporate lawyer who spent the first part of his career on financial-institutions M&A and fund formation. He now spends it on transactions where one side of the deal is a protocol, a foundation, or a tokenized asset pool.
He is most useful early, when the term sheet still says “token” as if that were a structure. He translates that into equity, revenue share, token warrants, IP licenses, and governance rights — and he tells clients which of those they are not actually getting.
Marcus works from New York. English-law joint ventures are done with admitted local counsel. He is admitted in New York.
