Scenario

Molly Hanson and Jacob Hanson are planning to expand their personal sales business to allow them to sell more of their products over the Internet. They create customized placemats for celebrations. They are considering doing it all on their own. They are also considering becoming small business partners of a large company, so their items would be sold on a website similar to Amazon, Barnes and Noble, Walmart, or Target. Because they are also buyers and consumers on the web, they are also curious about the buyer consumer side.

Molly and Jacob asked your law firm to give them some information about blockchain, cryptocurrency, and safe purchasing.
