Derivatives, embedded derivatives and mining
Complexities with digital assets increase when you move away from the fundamentals and start evaluating contracts to determine if they involve derivatives or have embedded derivatives.
In addition, recording mining revenue has many unique considerations, especially if you have questions about differences related to transaction fees and block rewards or if you or your client are mining independently or within a mining pool.

This webcast will walk you through:
