Christopher Giancarlo, the ex-Commodity Futures Trading Commission chairman nicknamed ’Crypto Dad’ for his blockchain advocacy, has taken a senior advisory role at Zurich-based Sygnum Bank. The regulated digital asset specialist aims to leverage Giancarlo’s regulatory expertise as it expands into Singapore and Middle Eastern markets following a $58 million capital raise.

Sygnum’s appointment signals growing institutional recognition of crypto’s maturation. Giancarlo’s policymaking experience positions the bank to navigate complex global compliance landscapes while forging partnerships with traditional finance players. The MOVE coincides with accelerating institutional adoption of digital assets worldwide.
