FCM ONE: It's All Foreign Currency to Me follows the launch of a high-risk online currency exchange startup built by one relentless founder working around the clock beside graduate students, coders, and quantitative analysts hired to translate massive financial formulas into functioning software under work-for-hire agreements. As the platform begins scaling internationally, the legal problems grow just as fast. Ownership of code, IP assignment, contractor classification, confidentiality, proprietary algorithms, and financial compliance collide inside a business where tiny formula errors can create enormous losses. The founder built the vision, funded the chaos, and pushed the project forward—but who actually owns the platform once everybody's code becomes part of the machine?

CRAZY CUPS claims it owns the patent rights to silicone drinkware and has begun threatening competitors, retailers, and manufacturers with lawsuits over flexible drinking cups. But does owning a patent mean owning an entire product category? This project forces students into the middle of a modern intellectual-property war involving patents, product design, manufacturing, marketing claims, licensing leverage, competition strategy, and the dangerous gap between legal reality and corporate intimidation. Students must determine whether CRAZY CUPS truly owns groundbreaking technology—or whether the company is using aggressive legal threats to scare an entire industry into submission.
