Binance’s Head of Product Departs
Cryptocurrency exchange Binance has seen another senior executive depart the company, with Global Product Lead Mayur Kamat heading for the door.
“We can confirm that Mayur has stepped down from his role as product lead,” a Binance spokesperson said in an emailed statement. “We are grateful to him for helping guide Binance through some of our most explosive growth and we wish him the very best.”
A former vice president of product at travel agent Agoda, Kamat joined Binance in April 2022.
Kamat’s departure follows those of Chief Strategy Officer Patrick Hillmann, Senior Director of Investigations Matthew Price, SVP for Compliance Steven Christie, who both left the company in early July.
Their departures were linked to founder Changpeng “CZ” Zhao’s response to the investigation of Binance by the U.S. Department of Justice, according to reports. CZ however described this as “FUD” (fear, uncertainty and doubt).
The news of Kamat’s departure was reported earlier by The Block.
