Stuart Hoegner, who joined Bitfinex in 2014 as a general counsel, has officially ended his decade-long tenure. His departure aligns with ongoing shifts within Tether and Bitfinex as the companies adapt to executive changes.

Michael Hilliard, with a deep understanding of the firms’ legal framework, replaces Hoegner as general counsel. This change occurs during a critical transition, marking another step in the evolving landscape of Tether and Bitfinex’s executive team.
