Bitfury Group has appointed Brian P. Brooks, the former US acting comptroller of the currency from May 2020 to this past January, as its chief executive officer.
The Amsterdam-based mining and crypto tech leader said today that Brooks will lead the 10-year-old crypto unicorn as it launches a new funding round, increases the growth of its mining business with a new microchip design and new global data center locations, and scales a portfolio of businesses that grew out of the company’s heritage as an early Bitcoin leader.
Bitfury founder Valery Vavilov will become chairman of the board and chief vision officer and continue to focus on developing over-the-horizon hardware and software innovations as the company builds the infrastructure for a tokenized global economy.
