Rettig has accepted an executive position at another company and is resigning due to her new commitments, Silvergate ( SI ) said in a filing after the close Thursday. The company will start a search to fill the boards' vacancies.

According to media reports Rettig was named Polygon Labs' first chief policy officer. Earlier this month, Silvergate ( SI ) stock tumbled after reports that the U.S. Department of Justice is investigating the crypto-focused bank's business with collapsed crypto firms FTX and Alameda Research.
