We leverage AI tools to eliminate entry barriers for users seeking to interact with crypto and digital assets, with a particular emphasis on the Sky Ecosystem. Our legal-first approach emphasizes global regulatory compliance with a focus on tailoring frontend solutions to meet specific jurisdictional requirements.



With long experience working with the Sky Ecosystem and Decentralized Autonomous Organizations (DAOs) in general, we are uniquely positioned to capitalize on the opportunities presented by Sky's Endgame Plan. Our deep understanding of the ecosystem creates an exceptional advantage in our collaborations with decentralized participants.



About the Team

Archon Financial's Legal Team comprises crypto/web3 lawyers with extensive expertise in advising clients on how best to navigate the rapidly evolving global regulatory climate as it pertains to digital assets and distributed ledger technology. We have been instrumental in shaping the legal frameworks for leading DeFi projects, including MakerDAO (now Sky), Aave, Chiliz, and numerous others. With our blended understanding of the law and innovative technology, we are able to engage with the Sky community and ecosystem on a deep level with a thorough understanding of its inner mechanisms.

  • Continuously evaluate operational risks and legal requirements to ensure outstanding support as Archon Financial and Skybase's businesses continue to grow.
  • Advise on and structure complex commercial crypto transactions involving crypto. Manage relationships with external local counsels across a range of jurisdictions to secure clear, actionable input in an efficient and cost-effective manner.
  • Work effectively across business units and product-related functions to resolve complex business and risk issues. Build relationships with key stakeholders in the Sky Ecosystem who cooperate with Archon Financial or impact our projects.
  • Other legal projects: depending on skills, preferences, and company needs, you can get involved in a wide range of legal topics, including real-world assets (RWAs), intellectual property, employment, corporate projects, and other in-house legal projects.


This role requires a proactive, highly organized individual capable of managing multifaceted projects across multiple jurisdictions. If you are passionate about shaping the future of crypto and DeFi and eager to contribute to advancing the industry, we invite you to join our mission.
