Fortitude Names Hut 8 Alum Jaime Leverton CEO Ahead of Nasdaq Debut

Zcash miner Fortitude has announced Jaime Leverton as its new CEO, ahead of its planned listing on the Nasdaq exchange.

Leverton, a seasoned executive with a background in cryptocurrency and blockchain, previously served as the chief executive officer of Hut 8, one of Canada's largest Bitcoin miners. Her experience will likely be valuable to Fortitude as it navigates the complexities of the public markets.

The move comes as Fortitude prepares for its initial public offering (IPO) on Nasdaq, which is expected to bring significant attention and scrutiny from investors.
