Grayscale Appoints Wall Street Veteran Peter Mintzberg As New CEO
Crypto asset manager Grayscale has appointed Peter Mintzberg as its new CEO, marking a turning point for the company that once stood at odds with traditional finance.
数字资产管理公司Grayscale任命了Peter Mintzberg为其新CEO,标志着这家曾与传统金融对立的公司迎来了一个转折点。
What Happened: Mintzberg, who has held senior positions at Goldman Sachs (NYSE:GS) and BlackRock Inc. (NYSE:BLK), brings over two decades of experience in traditional finance to Grayscale, Fortune reported.
据《财富》报道,Mintzberg曾在高盛和贝莱德担任高级职位,在传统金融领域拥有二十多年的经验,他将把这些经验带给Grayscale。
His appointment comes at a crucial juncture for the firm, which recently converted its Bitcoin (CRYPTO: BTC) trust into an ETF following a legal victory against the SEC.
他的任命对于Grayscale来说至关重要,该公司最近在与美国证券交易委员会的法律胜利后,将其比特币信托转化为ETF。
However, this success also opened the door to formidable competitors like BlackRock and Fidelity, leading to significant outflows of investor capital from Grayscale's funds.
然而,这一成功也为贝莱德和富达等强大的竞争对手打开了大门,导致了投资者资金大规模流出Grayscale的基金。
The decision to bring Mintzberg on board reflects Grayscale's strategy to compete with larger financial institutions that have entered the cryptocurrency space.
决定聘请Mintzberg加入的目的是体现Grayscale与已进入加密货币领域的更大型金融机构竞争的策略。

Mintzberg's extensive experience in traditional finance is expected to help Grayscale navigate its next phase of growth and address the regulatory challenges that have weighed on the firm.
预计Mintzberg在传统金融领域的丰富经验将有助于Grayscale应对下一个增长阶段和困扰该公司的监管挑战。
Bloomberg analyst Eric Balchunas noted that Grayscale sought a leader "without the regulatory baggage" of former CEO Michael Sonnenshein, positioning Mintzberg as the ideal candidate to steer the company through these turbulent times.
彭博分析师埃里克·巴尔修纳斯指出,灰度正在寻求一位“没有前首席执行官迈克尔·森森海因的监管包袱”的领导者,将明茨伯格定位为引领公司度过这个动荡时期的理想人选。
Mintzberg's arrival comes as Grayscale expands its product offerings, including the recent launch of its Grayscale Ethereum Trust (OTC:ETHE) and a lower-fee "mini" version of its Grayscale Bitcoin Trust (OTC:GBTC).
在明茨伯格加入之际,灰度正在扩大其产品的范围,包括最近推出的灰度以太坊信托(OTC:ETHE)和灰度比特币信托(OTC:GBTC)的低费“迷你”版本。
Despite these developments, Grayscale faces an uphill battle in differentiating itself from competitors like BlackRock and Fidelity, which have leveraged their scale to offer similar products at lower costs.
尽管有这些发展,灰度在区别自己与像贝莱德和富达这样的竞争对手方面面临着艰巨的任务,这些竞争对手利用其规模以更低的成本提供类似的产品。
What's Next: The upcoming Benzinga Future of Digital Assets event on Nov. 19 will provide a platform for industry leaders and analysts to discuss the implications of Grayscale's leadership change and the broader trends shaping the digital asset market.
接下来:11月19日的Benzinga数字资产未来活动将为行业领导者和分析师提供一个讨论灰度领导层变革及塑造数字资产市场更广泛趋势的平台。
