Currency.com Appoints U.S. Leadership Team to Accelerate Nationwide Expansion
Currency.com US expansion continues rapidly with 31 Money Transmitter Licenses secured— most recently in Tennessee — and more on the way. By combining regulatory discipline with product innovation, the company is building the foundation for long-term growth in one of the world’s most competitive fintech markets.
Made to power the next era of American fintech, Currency.com is building a regulated platform that brings together digital assets, traditional financial instruments, and payments under one roof. The primary goal is to deliver a seamless, user-centric experience tailored to how Americans invest, transact, and manage money.
Enrico Serafini joins Currency.com with over two decades of experience in scaling high-growth fintech ventures and building trusted, modern platforms. He is also a senior advisor to international organizations across fintech, government, and infrastructure. As U.S. CEO, he will lead Currency.com’s next phase of growth in the American market, leveraging his expertise in regulatory strategy, digital asset infrastructure, and user experience.
Dave Ackerman, newly appointed COO, brings a proven track record in operational excellence and technology-driven transformation across leading financial institutions. He will oversee the execution of Currency.com’s U.S. strategy — ensuring the delivery of secure, efficient, and compliant services for both consumers and businesses.
“Currency.com is built around regulation, performance, and user experience — that’s what makes it stand out,” said Dave Ackerman. “Our job now is to scale that approach for the U.S. market and make finance simpler, smarter, and more secure.”
“Enrico and Dave bring the experience, clarity, and vision we need to lead in the U.S.,” said Konstantin Anissimov, Global CEO of Currency.com. “Their leadership marks an important step in our mission to build trusted, next-generation financial infrastructure — powered by regulation and designed for real users.”
With its leadership in place and regulatory growth accelerating, the Currency.com US expansion marks a major step in delivering a secure, compliant fintech experience.
