“# Gemini exec to join Bitstamp crypto exchange as new CEO <\/strong>”
\n<\/p>\n

Bitstamp, one of the world\u2019s oldest and largest cryptocurrency exchanges, is replacing its CEO for the first time.<\/p>\n

Nejc Kodri\u010d, the firm\u2019s CEO who co-founded Bitstamp back in 2011, is stepping down from his position. He will be moving into a new advisory role on the company\u2019s board of directors, Bitstamp executives told Cointelegraph on Oct. 22.<\/p>\n

Julian Sawyer, who currently serves as the managing director of the United Kingdom and Europe at major global crypto exchange Gemini, will replace Kodri\u010d, becoming the second CEO in Bitstamp\u2019s history.<\/p>\n

The replacement is purportedly a response to the dynamic growth of the exchange over the last nine years.<\/p>\n

Kodri\u010d says that Bitstamp has grown far beyond his initial vision since he founded it years ago. At the time, Bitcoin was trading at just a few cents, and Kodri\u010d managed to set up the exchange in a garage with 1,000 euros, two laptops and a server. Now, Bitcoin (BTC) is trading at $12,783, while Bitstamp is one of the world\u2019s top crypto exchanges<\/a>. Kodri\u010d said:<\/p>\n

\u201cAfter much thought, I\u2019ve come to the conclusion that Bitstamp has already grown beyond what I envisioned it would become and it is time for someone else to expand this vision further. […] Although we\u2019ve grown exponentially, it still feels like Bitstamp is just getting started.\u201d<\/p><\/blockquote>\n

Sawyer has over 20 years of banking and fintech experience. In May 2015, Sawyer co-founded Starling Bank, where he served as chief operating officer until 2019. The exec also served as a consultant and advisor to other banks and founded financial management consulting firm Bluerock Consulting.<\/p>\n

At publishing time, Bitstamp is ranked the eighth-largest crypto exchange by daily trading volume, which is around $373 million, according<\/a> to data from CoinGecko. The exchange provides<\/a> trading services for seven major cryptocurrencies, among them Bitcoin, Ether (ETH) and XRP.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n
