The crypto and stock trading firm Robinhood Crypto’s COO Christine Brown announces her departure after spending five years in the company.
Brown revealed the news via a Twitter thread. Brown has been working with Robinhood since 2017, and in April 2021, she was promoted to Robinhood Crypto COO from VP of Product Operations.
“I joined RH when it was under 100 people—before we even offered a crypto product. Watching us grow through IPO and serving more than 22m users has been the greatest professional experience of my life,” Brown tweeted.
Latest reports reveal that she is going to start her own crypto venture following the departure but the exact details are not revealed yet.
Robinhood chief operating officer Gretchen Howard stated “We’re so grateful to Christine for her contributions to Robinhood over the past five years – from leading our self-clearing initiative to scaling the Robinhood Crypto team. We’re excited to follow her entrepreneurial journey going forward.”
Recently Robinhood introduced a Cash Card to make easier investments in trading and digital assets and the card will be offered by Robinhood Money LLC. In January, the firm launched its wallet beta program and it currently has 250,000 wallet users.
