CFO da Ripple sai da empresa de pagamentos
- Campbell served as Ripple’s CFO for over two years and previously held roles at other financial companies.
- Ripple está programado para ir a julgamento na SEC em abril de 2024.
- Brad Garlinghouse incentivou recentemente as start-ups a manterem-se afastadas dos EUA devido à incerteza regulamentar.
Crypto payment company Ripple has confirmed the departure of its chief financial officer (CFO), Kristina Campell, after almost two and a half years with the firm. Campbell’s LinkedIn page shows that she currently occupies a similar role at the digital health company Maven Clinic.
Um porta-voz da Ripple confirmou a notícia em um comunicado:
We’re grateful for Kristina’s leadership over the past 2+ years and her contributions to the company, as we’ve experienced strong global momentum, business growth, and navigated regulatory headwinds. Ripple remains in strong financial standing and is laser-focused on its continued success in key markets around the world.
Prior to her time at Ripple, Campbell spent a number of years in the financial services industry. She reportedly spent four years at PayNearMe, a payment platform. Campbell shared a LinkedIn post about her new role, expressing her gratitude “to everyone at Ripple who made the last few years so memorable.”
Ela escreveu no publicar:
While healthcare is a complex, highly regulated industry like fintech, it’s new to me. I’m excited to bring my experience to this mission-driven team and learn everything I can along the way.
Campbell’s exit from Ripple comes at a time when the payment company is engaged in a legal dispute with the US Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC). The dispute, which has been going on since December 2020, is primarily focused on the sale of Ripple’s XRP token.
A SEC acredita que tal venda se qualifica como valores mobiliários e, portanto, está sob sua jurisdição. No entanto, um juiz federal determinou em julho que o XRP não era um título quando vendido a investidores individuais. Curiosamente, o tribunal reafirmou a decisão em outubro, depois que a SEC interpôs recurso.
It’s not clear if Campbell’s exit had anything to do with Ripple’s battle in the US. The crypto firm is no doubt facing the heat despite its confidence in securing a victory against the SEC. Interestingly, Ripple’s CEO, Brad Garlinghouse, reconheceu recentemente que os EUA poderão já não ser o destino certo para novos projetos devido a incertezas regulamentares. Ele incentivou novas empresas a se expandirem para outras áreas com políticas mais amigáveis.
Cobri algumas histórias interessantes em minha carreira como jornalista e acho as histórias relacionadas ao blockchain muito intrigantes. Acredito que a Web3 vai mudar o mundo e quero que todos façam parte dele.
