A principal plataforma de troca de criptomoedas na Índia, WazirX, é a mais recente a se juntar à lista de empresas que sofrem com o mercado de criptomoedas em andamento, anunciando uma demissão de seus funcionários 40%.
According to a recently shared statement by the exchange, it has laid off several employees from its 150-membered team, notably 50 to as many as 70 in count. Three sources close to the matter told CoinDesk that the laid off employees were informed on Friday that they would receive their salary for the next 45 days. However, the company has reportedly revoked the laid off employees’ access as their services would not be required effective immediately.
WazirX said in a statement on Saturday that the crypto market is currently in its winter season because of the “current global economic slowdown.”
“The Indian crypto industry has had its unique problems with respect to taxes, regulations, and banking access. This has led to a dramatic fall in volumes in all Indian crypto exchanges,”
Acrescentou ainda.
De acordo com as declarações de uma das fontes, a WazirX demitiu funcionários de vários departamentos, incluindo recursos humanos, suporte ao cliente, entre outros. Além disso, analistas, gerentes e gerentes associados são alguns dos cargos demitidos.
Interestingly, an employee who “abruptly” lost their job reported that Nischal Shetty’s company has fired the entire public policy and communication team.
De acordo com Coindesk, the exchange claims to prioritize financial stability and quality services to its customers and to achieve the same, it took this difficult decision of reducing its staff to “weather the crypto winter.”
Notavelmente, durante o último mercado de criptomoedas em 2018, a gigante indiana das exchanges dobrou e construiu seu inovador mecanismo peer-to-peer (P2P).
A declaração diz:
“The crypto industry operates in cycles, and the bear market is inevitably followed by a spectacular bull market. We will continue to focus on our customers’ needs and continue to build. We are confident that we will come out stronger when the bull market arrives.”
Escrutínio regulatório
It is important to note that the reported layoff decision comes soon after the company received severe scrutiny from the India’s Enforcement Directorate for alleged money laundering activities. The regulator searched the premises of the WazirX’s director, and following the exercises, confiscated the sum of $8.13 million belonging to the exchange.
Mais tarde, em setembro, as autoridades descongelaram suas contas bancárias como resultado de sua cooperação ativa na investigação de lavagem de dinheiro em andamento.
After India’s strict crypto tax rules went into effect in March 2022, WazirX Co-Founder Nischal Shetty stated that “we have entered a period of pain.” Daily trading volume on the exchange have been continuously dropping, clearly weakening operations within the company.
