The sole remaining CFTC commissioner, Caroline Pham, said earlier this year that she would leave the agency after the US Senate confirms a replacement.
Caroline Pham, the acting chair of the US Commodity Futures Trading Commission, will leave the financial regulator to join MoonPay, following the Senate confirmation of her successor.
In a Wednesday X post, MoonPay confirmed reports that Pham would join its team as a chief legal and administrative officer. She became acting chair in January amid the changeover in presidential administrations and has been the sole Republican commissioner at the CFTC for months, following the end of other leaders’ terms and resignations.
Pham said in May that she planned to leave the CFTC following the Senate confirmation of Brian Quintenz, US President Donald Trump’s first pick to replace her as chair. However, after a pushback from Gemini co-founders Cameron and Tyler Winklevoss, the White House withdrew Quintenz’s nomination and later named Securities and Exchange Commission official Michael Selig as the president’s pick for CFTC chair.
