Katherine Dowling’s appointment strengthens BSTR’s leadership team as the Bitcoin treasury company prepares to go public.
BSTR Holdings, Inc. has appointed Katherine Dowling as President and Board Member of BSTR, following a fundraising round and planned business combination with CEPO in early 2026.
Upon completion of the business combination, BSTR is expected to trade under the ticker symbol “BSTR” and launch with 30,021 BTC and approximately US$1.3 billion of total fiat financing on its balance sheet, plus an additional US$200 million contributed by CEPO subject to redemptions.
Dowling joins from Bitwise Asset Management, where she previously served on the Executive Committee and as its General Counsel and Chief Compliance Officer. Her prior roles include serving as an Assistant U.S. Attorney as well as executive leadership positions in private equity.
“The breadth and depth of Katherine’s experience as a leading digital assets veteran and across government and private equity make her uniquely qualified to join BSTR’s leadership team,” said Dr Adam Back, CEO and co-founder of BSTR. “Her institutional leadership experience, regulatory expertise, and investment management pedigree will accelerate our mission to unite Bitcoin and traditional finance.”
