Former CFTC Commissioner and Trump’s initial pick to lead the agency, Brian Quintenz, joins SUI Group’s board to support their digital asset treasury strategy. SUI Group reported holding 107,743,979 Sui (SUI), valued at around $200 million in Q3 2025. Quintenz brings regulatory and policy expertise to the company after his tenure in government and roles in the crypto industry.

Quintenz previously served as a CFTC commissioner and global head of policy at a16z crypto. His move to SUI Group follows a trend of CFTC officials transitioning to the private sector post-government work. After Trump’s tenure, current CFTC chair Michael Selig is the sole Senate-confirmed member, with no new nominations in sight, potentially leaving the agency lacking leadership for an extended period.
