Anchorage Digital welcomes former Goldman Sachs Exec to board

Former Goldman Sachs executive Connie Shoemaker has joined the board of directors of Anchorage Digital, a crypto custody and banking firm. Shoemaker previously served as chief administrative officer (CAO) at Goldman Sachs and as chief operating officer (COO) and chief financial officer (CFO) of the parent company of Bridgewater Associates, one of the world's largest hedge funds. Anchorage Digital's mission is to provide institutions with the tools and infrastructure they need to invest in cryptocurrencies securely. The company offers a range of services, including custody, trading, lending, and staking. Anchorage Digital is backed by some of the biggest names in the cryptocurrency industry, including Andreessen Horowitz, Sequoia Capital, and Tiger Global Management. Shoemaker's appointment to Anchorage Digital's board is a significant coup for the company. He brings a wealth of experience in financial services and technology to the company, and his insights will be invaluable as Anchorage Digital continues to grow.
