As we look towards the future of crypto, 2023 presents Blockchain.com with an opportunity to build upon our success, prepare for what’s ahead and — most importantly — continue to support our tens of millions of customers in over 150 countries.

To kick off this year, we are delighted to announce Tim Lubans has been promoted to General Counsel of Blockchain.com.

Tim manages the Legal and Compliance teams and is responsible for the oversight of all legal, regulatory and compliance matters globally. With 20 years in regulated financial services, Tim brings a wealth of industry knowledge and experience to his role of General Counsel as Blockchain.com faces a rapidly evolving regulatory environment.

Tim began his career as a regulatory lawyer at Clifford Chance in the early 2000s, making the move in-house at BlackRock (and the world of asset management) in 2006. Tim’s 12 years at BlackRock in London culminated in his time as Managing Director of the EMEA Legal & Compliance department, where he was the Co-Head of BlackRock EMEA’s Funds Legal Team, as well a member of the iShares ETF EMEA Executive Committee from 2015 to 2018.

Having joined Blockchain.com in 2019, Tim has led many aspects of the global expansion of the company and its maturation as a regulated services provider. Under Tim’s leadership, Blockchain.com will continue its evolution as one of the leading regulated digital asset providers in the world.
