Brian Armstrong
Liron Avineri, our Product Management Lead immediately picked Brian Armstrong the Co-founder and CEO of Coinbase. Brian always provides good value and offers keen insight into the future of money both on the Coinbase blog and through his X feed.
Dan Doney
Our Chief Revenue Office Mark Mayerfeld gave Dan Doney his highest recommendation. Dan is the Managing Director, CTO of DTCC Digital Assets, bringing his experience and expertise to bear as the venerable settlements and clearance company moves into digital assets and helps drive market-wide transformation.
Tyrone Lobban
May Michelson, our Director of Global Sales, thought everyone should be paying attention to Tyrone Lobban, Head of Blockchain Launch for Onyx by J. P. Morgan. Tyrone also sits on the board of directors for the Enterprise Ethereum Alliance. Last year, Tyrone claimed that 99.9% of his conversations with clients were about tokenization, making him one of the most interesting voices in the blockchain ecosystem.
Yoni Assia
Shahar Shamai, GK8’s Co-founder and CTO, had only good things to say about Yoni Assia, the Co-founder and CEO of eToro, and a crypto industry guru. Yoni was among the pioneers who took crypto a step forward, opening a business which went global. eToro was among GK8’s first design partners, and Yoni has plenty to say about custody solutions and the ways blockchain will change banking infrastructure.
Christina Frankopan
GK8’s Director of Sales in Europe, Anya Nova, was keen to introduce people to Christina Frankopan. In addition to working for the European Commission as a blockchain expert, Christina consults for Lazard within the Financial Institutions Group. Christina also has a busy schedule of conference appearances where her opinions are sought on fintech, blockchain, and more.
Evy Theunis
Steven Tsan is our Director of Sales for the APAC region. Steven recommended Evy Theunis, Head of Digital Assets at DBS Bank in Singapore. Evy recently noted how DBS’s digital assets under custody had grown 150% year-on-year, and she is often asked to speak about the bank’s strategy and readiness to partner stablecoin issuers who meet the new regulatory requirements.
Christoph Hock
Our Sales Director, Roy Shamir, suggested that we pay closer attention to Christoph Hock, and with good reason. Christoph is Head of Tokenisation and Digital Assets at Union Investment, which is the investment arm of Germany’s second largest bank. Christoph is much in demand as a speaker at some of the most prestigious conferences in Europe.
Mike Novogratz
It’s no surprise that Gk8 by Galaxy’s Co-founder and CEO, Lior Lamesh, chose Mike Novogratz as “one to follow.” Mike is the CEO of Galaxy and one of the most in-demand keynote speakers on the blockchain and crypto conference circuit. As a champion of the industry, Mike always delivers something that’s worth listening to.
