Sprememba na vrhu za kripto borzo Kraken z nekdanjim COO kot vodilno podjetje

Kripto borza Kraken je imenovala novega izvršnega direktorja – glavni operativni direktor (COO) Dave Ripley bo vodil podjetje, trenutni izvršni direktor Jesse Powell pa naj bi postal predsednik upravnega odbora podjetja.

Ripley, ki je bil glavni operativni direktor šest let, bo prevzel vlogo izvršnega direktorja, ko bo najden nov operativni direktor, pravi Kraken.

Ves čas svojega mandata kot COO je Ripley igral "pomembno vlogo" pri rasti podjetja in širjenju operacij. Pridružil se je Kraken s prevzemom kripto denarnice Glidera, kjer je bil soustanovitelj in izvršni direktor.

Under Ripley’s stewardship as COO, Kraken has expanded its workforce from 50 to more than 3,000 and seen more than 16 acquisitions secured by the company as well as a number of global regulatory licenses and partnerships.

Ripley pravi: "Moja vizija, skupaj z ostalo vodstveno ekipo, je v koraku z Jessejevo – pospešiti sprejetje kriptovalute."

As chair, Powell says he will be turning his attention to the company’s products, user experience and “broader industry advocacy” as Ripley “leads Kraken through its next era of growth”.

Going forward, Kraken will continue to invest in its product portfolio, with an NFT marketplace to launch soon, joining Kraken’s trading tools, futures trading and OTC products.
