Paul Camp, a veteran of JPMorgan Chase and Deutsche Bank, has joined the digital-currency consumer finance company Circle Internet Financial as the startups new chief financial officer.

Camp, whose titles also include corporate treasurer and executive vice president of financial operations, will oversee the Boston firms core financial transaction operations. Circle stores its customers' bitcoin private keys and allows them to purchase the decentralized digital currency for U.S. dollars.

Pauls exceptional global skill set and relationships will also be critical in the companys continued global expansion, Circle's founder chief executive officer Jeremy Allaire wrote in a blog post announcing the hire.

Camp previously headed JPMorgan Chases global transaction services division until July 2014. He had previously held a similar position with Deutsche Bank, which led European competitors in settlement and payment services during his tenure.

The hire is the latest in a year that has seen the young company more than triple its number of employees, from 14 to 50. Circle's board includes Raj Date, a former top official at the Consumer Financial Projection Bureau.
