In this interview, StockBox speaks with Eddy Travia, CEO of Coinsilium, about the company’s latest strategic update. Eddy discusses recent board changes, the role of Forza Gibraltar and its Bitcoin treasury, and how Coinsilium is positioning itself for long-term growth in the evolving digital asset space.
- Board Restructure Signals Next Phase: Coinsilium have refreshed their leadership team to prepare for growth, with Ben Proffitt joining as Executive Director, and co-founder Malcolm Palle transitioning to Non-Executive Chairman.
- Not Just a Bitcoin Treasury Play: While Forza Gibraltar now holds 182 BTC (~$20M), the focus remains on broader digital asset ventures – including trading infrastructure, payment innovation and blockchain finance.
- Strategic Growth Backed by Strong Balance Sheet: Coinsilium aims to leverage its capital strength to scale operations, align with portfolio companies, and explore institutional-grade revenue opportunities.
As part of the restructuring, Ben Proffitt, currently serving as Chief Financial Officer, has been appointed Executive Director. Malcolm Palle has transitioned from Executive Chairman to Non-Executive Chairman, and Federica Velardo has stepped down from the Board but will continue in her role as General Legal Counsel.
The company said these changes position Coinsilium to “build on its enhanced financial base and digital asset portfolio” as it continues to expand its footprint across blockchain, Web3, and digital asset investment markets.
