Ether Capital Corporation (“ETHC”), a public company established to provide shareholders with an opportunity to invest in the revolutionary Ethereum technology, retained Grey Swan to advise on insurance coverage. Murn Meyrick was very helpful in understanding our business and priorities and analyzing available coverage options. The extent of Murn’s experience, expertise and attention to detail was critical in negotiations with insurers to draft and secure appropriate policy wording and terms in this newly emerging industry. I would not hesitate recommending Grey Swan for specialized insurance advice in the blockchain industry, and otherwise.
