Ex-Gémemini, Kraken Exec appointed to the CEO of Crypto Advocacy Group



Ji Hun Kim, a lawyer who previously worked in the exchanges of Gemini and Kraken cryptocurrency, was appointed permanent CEO of the Crypto Council for Innovation (CCI), after playing the role on an temporary basis.

In an opinion Thursday, the CCI said Its board of directors had appointed Kim as CEO after being president and acting CEO since January. He previously worked as a legal and political director of the organization after three years at Gemini and less than a year in Kraken.

“This is a moment of pivotal evolution for our industry, which requires a serious and enlightened commitment,” said Kim. “I can’t wait to continue building an institution that serves as a bridge between technology and public policy, based on facts, confidence and respect for the whole world.”
