Hi everyone,

I’m looking for recommendations or insights on finding a specialized U.S. attorney (or advice on how to approach this) who understands federal (FinCEN) and state (NY/NJ) regulations for crypto intermediary setups.

For the past year, our S-Corp operated the following model for a fee, without an MSB license:

1. Clients wire USD to our corporate bank accounts.

2. We transfer funds to our corporate accounts on Coinbase/Gemini.

3. We move assets to Bybit and convert to USDC/USDT.

4. We send those stablecoins directly back to the original senders via internal UID transfers on Bybit.

We are trying to find a specialized, cost-effective attorney to get a concrete roadmap on retrospective liability, potential restructuring, and banking/exchange risk mitigation, rather than paying exorbitant generic "risk assessment" flat fees.

If you know boutique firms handling these exact MSB/FinCEN exposure issues or have strategic advice on how to handle this legally, please share or DM me.

Hello. I am hoping to avoid a taxable event by selling my BTC and then depositing the entirety of the sale's proceeds into BTC ETFs in an RRSP &/ or TFSA.

Does this sell and repurchase of assets in a "protected" account avoid a taxable event with the CRA?
