Bitdeer Names Michael Potter CFO Amid AI Cloud Expansion

Bitdeer Technologies Group has appointed Michael Potter, a veteran technology finance executive, as its new chief financial officer. The Singapore-based Bitcoin mining and infrastructure company announced the leadership change as it continues to expand its focus into artificial intelligence and cloud computing services.

Potter’s appointment is effective immediately. He replaces outgoing CFO Jianchun Liu, who will remain with the company through June 30 before transitioning to a principal advisor role. The company stated that Liu’s resignation was for personal reasons and not the result of any disagreement regarding company operations or policies.

Potter joins Bitdeer from Corsair Gaming, where he served as CFO from 2019 through 2025. During his tenure, he led the gaming hardware manufacturer’s initial public offering in 2020 and oversaw subsequent capital markets transactions. His background includes senior finance roles at several hardware-intensive public companies, including Canadian Solar, Lattice Semiconductor, NeoPhotonics, and STATS ChipPAC. He has also served on the board of renewable energy firm Cordelio Power.
