BlackRock Enhances Board with Legal Expert from MoonPay
BlackRock boosts its Bitcoin ETF board, adding MoonPay's chief legal officer
BlackRock is reshaping its leadership, announcing that Lindsey Haswell from MoonPay will join the board of its high-profile $IBIT spot Bitcoin ETF.
This ETF is one of the most actively traded and holds the second-largest asset size position, next only to Grayscale's GBTC when it's not included.
Haswell is a prominent figure in the crypto world because of her role at MoonPay and as a founding member of the Core blockchain, where she contributes to the Core Dao.
The Core blockchain, compatible with the Ethereum Virtual Machine, uses Bitcoin’s proof-of-work mechanism, ensuring robust security.
Starting November 6, 2024, Haswell will replace financier Kimun Lee on the BlackRock $IBIT board, signaling a significant change within the company’s management as it aligns with the dynamic crypto market.
Her previous experience at Blockchain.com adds to her qualifications, enhancing her contribution to BlackRock.
The $IBIT ETF, under BlackRock, has shown significant trading volumes recently, leading in its category and affirming BlackRock's strategic intent to expand its influence in the cryptocurrency sector.
