Coinbase's Institutional Platform Head is Leaving the Company
Total News – Atlanta, GA 10/5/2018. Adam White, leader of Coinbase's institutional platform group, is leaving the company.
A company spokesman told Bloomberg in an email, "While we're extremely sad to see him go, we're also confident in that group's ability to keep executing on the vision that he laid out to be the most trusted venue for institutional investors to trade cryptocurrencies."
White has been with Coinbase since 2013 and was Coinbase's fifth-ever employee. Bloomberg noted that White joined the company "when the founders were still working out of a one-bedroom apartment and Bitcoin was trading around $200. "
CEO and co-founder Brian Armstrong gave his comment, saying:
"Over the past five years, Adam helped us build our exchange business into the largest U.S.-based crypto-trading venue, and was integral to growing Coinbase's global presence and scaling our culture to multiple offices.
