Ciphrex Corp, a software company in the emerging field of cryptocurrency and blockchain technology, has appointed venture capitalist Alyse Killeen to its board of advisers.
Killeen, now managing partner at StillMark Co, an investment advisory and venture investment group, is an advocate of decentralised consensus network technologies that enable transactions in digital assets.
She is a recognised and sought-after adviser to start-ups in the cryptotech space, including Netki and Factom. She is a board director of BitGive – the first Bitcoin non-profit – and her prominence in blockchain-related venture funding was featured in a recent Forbes magazine article.
“I am extremely pleased to welcome Alyse Killeen as a member of our team,” says Eric Lombrozo, co-CEO of Ciphrex. “She brings unique insights and a strategic vision that is scarce in this space, she is a delight to work with, and I look forward to her participation and contributions to Ciphrex’s success."
Killeen says: “Eric Lombrozo is a world class leader in the field of decentralised consensus technology. He has an exceptional clarity and depth of knowledge of the bitcoin blockchain and the unique opportunities to create value upon that infrastructure. He has built at Ciphrex one of the most competent and qualified teams in the industry.”
