El ex CEO de Binance.US, Brian Brooks, se une a Hashdex
- Brian Brooks served as the former CEO of Binance.US and Coinbase’s chief legal officer.
- A recent filing by the SEC revealed that Brooks left his role at Binance.US due to Changpeng Zhao’s continued influence at the exchange.
Brian Brooks ha tenido un regreso notable a la industria de las criptomonedas, uniéndose a la junta directiva de Hashdex, un administrador de activos que se enfoca en las criptomonedas. Esto ocurre casi dos años después de que el ex contralor interino de la moneda para el gobierno de los Estados Unidos dejara su cargo en el CEO de Binance.US citando diferencias sobre la dirección estratégica. Pasó solo cuatro meses en el intercambio antes de dejarlo.
Brooks replaced Catherine Coley as CEO of Binance.US in 2021. However, his short stay at the exchange raised concerns over Binance’s operations. Interestingly, the SEC’s filing in June claimed Binance CEO Changpeng Zhao denied Brooks the authority to oversee the U.S. exchange.
Brooks también se desempeñó como Coinbase’s director legal de 2018 a 2020 y director ejecutivo de Bitfury de octubre de 2021 a diciembre de 2022. Hashdex esperanzas to rely on Book’s vast experience in “financial regulation and the crypto industry” as a member of its board.
En reacción a su nombramiento en Hashdex, Brooks dijo:
Crypto assets are changing the economics of nearly every industry across the globe, allowing individuals to have an ownership stake in the networks in which they participate. I look forward to helping Hashdex deliver on their vision of bridging the divide between traditional financial markets and the crypto economy.”
Brooks currently works as a managing partner at Valor Capital Group, a venture capital group that has previously funded crypto businesses through several investment rounds. Brooks will support Hashdex with strategic counsel to “accelerate Hashdex’s continued growth in global markets.”
Hashdex co-founder Marcelo Sampaio remarked that Brook’s “proven ability to push forward a thoughtful, innovation-driven public is much needed at this time.” Sampaio added that Brian’s “extensive experience as a leader in financial regulation and the crypto industry will help Hashdex meet our core mission of giving investors simple and secure access to the developing crypto ecosystem.”
Hashdex will hope that Brook’s experience will further expand its influence in the crypto market amidst the changing regulatory climate.
