The appointment, effective January 13, 2026, is a strategic move aimed at bolstering the company's financial governance and supporting its expansion as demand for reliable staking infrastructure accelerates.
Botaitis brings over 20 years of global finance leadership experience spanning traditional financial services, fintech, and Web3. Her career began in retail banking, followed by senior finance roles at Citigroup and LendingClub. She later co-founded and served as CFO of a blockchain company, giving her a unique perspective on building durable financial systems for high-growth environments.
Most notably, Botaitis was previously the CFO and Treasurer at Hedera (HBAR), where she oversaw hundreds of millions in fiat budget and billions in digital assets. During her tenure at Hedera, she led the organization's first financial audit, modernized treasury operations, and helped establish governance and reporting practices aligned with institutional and regulatory expectations.
At P2P.org, Botaitis will oversee all finance, treasury, planning, and operational functions. Her primary focus will be on supporting scalable growth, strengthening internal controls, and ensuring the company's financial infrastructure meets the evolving needs of institutional clients, particularly in key growth markets like the United States and Latin America.
Alex Esin, CEO of P2P.org, stated, "Betsabe adds immediate strategic value to P2P.org as we look to expand across markets and deepen our global footprint. Her international experience, combined with hands-on leadership through every stage of a company’s lifecycle – from early-stage growth and M&A to working with large institutions – gives us the financial leadership needed to execute our long-term vision."
In her statement, Botaitis expressed enthusiasm for the role, highlighting her passion for how staking secures blockchain networks and fosters ecosystem sustainability. "P2P.org has built trusted, scalable, enterprise-class products and services in institutional staking," she said. "I’m committed to helping accelerate our momentum, strengthening our financial architecture, and supporting sustainable growth at global scale with purpose and precision."
The appointment underscores P2P.org's commitment to institutional-grade financial rigor. The company, founded in 2018, is a major player in the staking sector, operating validator infrastructure across more than 50 networks with over $12 billion in staked assets. It boasts a perfect track record with zero slashing incidents and 99.9% uptime, serving over 90,000 delegators globally.
