In a strategic move to strengthen its regulatory and institutional strategy, Sygnum has appointed former CFTC Chairman Christopher Giancarlo to its Advisory Council. The Swiss crypto bank, fresh off a $58 million funding round, announced Giancarlo’s advisory role on May 27.
Giancarlo—nicknamed “Crypto Dad” for his advocacy—will guide Sygnum on compliance and partnerships as institutional demand for digital assets grows. “We’re at a critical juncture for adoption,” he noted, aligning with his past calls for U.S. policy reforms.
His hire signals Sygnum’s focus on regulatory preparedness as it cements its position as a pioneer in crypto banking.
