Cryptocurrency Exchange Kraken Sees Departure of Several Executives

BlockBeats News, September 18th, according to a CoinDesk report, informed sources revealed that Kraken, a crypto exchange platform that is actively preparing for a US listing early next year, has seen four executives from its institutional business department resign. The recent departures from Kraken include: Global Head of Institutional Sales David Olsson; Exchange Business Lead and Vice President of Product and Professional Services Shannon Kurtas; OTC Trading Director Jeff Kramer; and Head of Americas OTC Trading Business Sanjay K.

Reportedly, ahead of its planned US listing in the first quarter of 2026, Kraken has already reduced its workforce by “hundreds.” In April of this year, a Kraken spokesperson stated that the company was “making difficult decisions to eliminate certain roles, consolidate teams in redundant departments, and continue to hire talent in key areas of the business.”
