Roisman Joins Fireblocks to Shape Digital Asset Regulation

Fireblocks has tapped Elad Roisman, former SEC Acting Chair, to lead its regulatory affairs as it expands into stablecoin and tokenization services for banks and financial institutions. Roisman joins Fireblocks as Chief Regulatory and Policy Officer and General Counsel, Regulatory, bringing his expertise in digital asset regulation from the SEC, Congress, and private practice.

Fireblocks is a digital asset infrastructure company that provides a platform for banks, payment companies, and asset managers to use stablecoins, tokenized assets, and on-chain settlement. Roisman's appointment adds regulatory depth to this strategy, as he will engage with regulators and help shape products for emerging rules.

This move fits a broader trend in the industry, where companies like Circle, MoonPay, Coinbase, and Fireblocks are hiring regulatory experts from government and finance backgrounds to navigate the complex landscape of digital assets.
