Inside Canada's Crypto Rulebook: Crypto Contracts, Market Structure and Tokenization

In this episode of Compliance Champions, Delphine Forma speaks with Torstein Braaten, Chief Compliance Officer at Canada Stablecorp and Managing Director at Eskay Capital, about Canada's distinctive approach to digital asset regulation. Rather than regulating crypto-assets themselves, Canada has built its framework around the concept of the crypto contract, a unique legal approach that shapes everything from licensing and custody to market structure and investor protection. Together, they explore how Canada's regulatory framework has evolved, why understanding a firm's business model is just as important as understanding the assets it offers, and how the market is preparing for the next phase of tokenization.
