Bullish names former NYSE president Stacey Cunningham as president

Bullish has appointed former NYSE president Stacey Cunningham as its president, adding a high-profile traditional-exchange executive to its leadership team. The crypto exchange said the hire is meant to strengthen its credibility in digital asset trading and help draw more institutional investors. Cunningham previously ran the New York Stock Exchange, giving Bullish a leader with deep ties to mainstream market structure and regulation. The move comes as crypto trading venues compete for institutional flow and seek to reassure large clients about governance and oversight. Watch whether Bullish discloses further senior hires or institutional partnerships as it builds out its exchange business.
