SUI Group, a Nasdaq-listed firm associated with the Sui blockchain ecosystem, has appointed former CFTC commissioner Brian Quintenz as an independent director. Quintenz will also serve on the company’s audit committee, providing regulatory oversight as the firm advances its SUI token-centered treasury strategy.
Quintenz’s experience spans derivatives markets and digital assets. After his tenure at the CFTC, where he oversaw early Bitcoin futures regulation, he served as global head of policy at a16z crypto and currently sits on the board of Kalshi. His background offers institutional and regulatory insight for SUI Group’s efforts to develop an institutional-grade digital asset treasury platform.
The appointment follows adjustments to the SUI Group board, now comprising five members with three independent directors. The company emphasized that Quintenz’s participation reinforces its regulatory credibility and aligns with its long-term plans for the Sui ecosystem, combining specialized finance operations with digital asset treasury initiatives.
