Sygnum Crypto Bank Snags ’Crypto Dad’ Giancarlo in Regulatory Power Play

Crypto bank Sygnum appoints former CFTC Chair Christopher Giancarlo to advisory council

Switzerland’s Sygnum just drafted heavyweight regulatory muscle—former CFTC chair Christopher Giancarlo joins their advisory council. The move reeks of strategic chess as institutional crypto players brace for 2025’s regulatory thunderstorm.

Giancarlo—nicknamed ’Crypto Dad’ for his blockchain-friendly stance during the 2017 boom—now lends legitimacy to one of crypto banking’s sharpest operators. Because nothing soothes nervous investors like a revolving-door regulator on payroll.

Sygnum’s betting big: licensed by both Swiss FINMA and Singapore’s MAS, they’re bridging TradFi skepticism with crypto’s ’move fast and break things’ ethos. Giancarlo’s hire screams ’we play by the rules—unless the rules suck.’

Meanwhile, traditional banks still can’t decide if Bitcoin is a scam or their next revenue stream. Slow clap for finance’s dinosaur class.
