BlockBeats News, February 6 — Over the past two weeks, the crypto market has experienced a deep downturn, with Bitcoin rapidly falling from its high of $90,000 and barely holding above the $60,000 mark. However, the intense bear market feeling is not only reflected in the price. In the past 48 hours, three executives have publicly announced their career changes.
In addition to Kyle Samani, co-founder of Multicoin, who is considered a leading figure in the industry, ZKsync CTO Anthony Rose (@anthonykrose) and Eigen Labs Director of Developer Relations Nader Dabit have also left the industry one after another.
Amid the weak price performance, the wave of executive departures in the crypto industry may be a concentrated manifestation of cyclical industry pressures combined with personal choices.
