Mark Grabowski discussed Facebook's controversial new cryptocurrency known as Libra. He was quoted in a news story by CCN, a popular site for tech news, and in LeapRate, a site covering online trading.

A member of the European Central Bank recently warned about Libra, saying it's not decentralized like a bona fide cryptocurrency and would operate like an unregulated nation-state. Grabowski agreed: "Look at the way Libra is structured. It’s a complete contradiction to decentralization. Facebook can use all the cryptocurrency buzzwords they want, but it’s like putting lipstick on a pig."

Grabowski is a professor at Adelphi University, where he teaches courses on Cyber Law and Bitcoin & Blockchain. Additionally, he recently published a textbook on cryptocurrency with Routledge , titled Cryptocurrencies: A Primer on Digital Money.

Mark Grabowski has published a new book chapter on eSports law.

eSports — the playing and watching of competitive video games — is growing fast worldwide: the global eSports market is about $2 billion and some tournaments award tens of millions of dollars in prizes. As eSports continues to grow, so too have the legal issues that loom over it. Exploitative contracts, rampant discrimination and cheating scandals are just a few of the many challenges that players, teams, leagues and sponsors must navigate.

Grabowski, a professor specializing in cyber law, wrote the book chapter in Understanding eSports: An Introduction to the Global Phenomenon, published in September 2019 by Lexington Books. He previously published a book chapter on Fantasy Sports Law.
