Gibraltar, March 31, 2021 – Digital Asset Management Limited, a leading crypto payments company based in Gibraltar, has today announced the appointment to its board of directors of cryptocurrency and payments expert, Miguel Vias.
Miguel brings more than 20 years of financial markets and fintech experience to the role, with a proven track record in management, liquidity growth and financial products. Significantly, Miguel worked for Ripple Labs, a provider of leading enterprise blockchain solutions, where he served as head of XRP markets and was responsible for growing institutional adoption of Ripple’s XRP coin. He was also responsible for cultivating and managing the initial partnership strategy for On-Demand-Liquidity, Ripple’s flagship remittance product. In his three and a half years at Ripple, Miguel was also in charge of Ripple’s XRP sales team, which generated crucial funding for the company’s operations. Prior to Ripple, Miguel was head of precious metals and options for the CME Group, the largest futures exchange in the world. Before then, he had held various precious metals trading positions at Mitsui, Bank of America and Morgan Stanley.
Miguel said:
