Kanav Kariya, who rose from intern to head of a cryptocurrency at Chicago-based trading behemoth Jump Trading, announced that he is stepping down from his position.
Kariya stated in a post on X, without explaining his reasons for leaving the firm., “Today marks the end of an incredible personal journey for me. It’s my last day at Jump, a moment I’m receiving with both a heavy heart and great excitement about the road ahead.”
This resignation comes after a tumultuous two years in which Kariya and Jump were at the core of one of crypto’s largest crashes.
Kariya, 25, was appointed to president of the firm’s crypto business in September 2021, when the Chicago-based company launched Jump Crypto as the public-facing moniker for its digital asset division.
He continues, “As for what’s next, I plan to stay engaged with the portfolio companies I’ve been most involved with and hopefully take some time to process the unbelievably eventful few years we’ve had.”
