Anchorage Digital Adds Former Goldman Sachs Executive to Board of Directors

Anchorage Digital, a crypto custody firm, has appointed Connie Shoemaker, a former Goldman Sachs executive, to its board of directors. Shoemaker is currently the COO and CFO of Bridgewater Associates Holdings, the parent company of Bridgewater Associates, the world's largest hedge fund. Anchorage Digital is the only crypto bank with a charter from the Office of the Comptroller of the Currency (OCC), and its business is growing due to institutional interest in crypto.

Shoemaker's experience in the traditional finance world will be valuable to Anchorage Digital as it continues to grow.
