- Erez Simha, formerly the CFO of Mercurity Fintech Holdings, is one of several high-profile recent hires at Apifiny.
- In May, the exchange hired BlackRock and Goldman Sachs alum Jason Jiang as chief technology officer.
- Apifiny, which considers itself an “exchange of exchanges,” is attempting to use its platform to connect the various crypto trading markets, and in doing so, help traders find the best prices and solve the market’s liquidity problems.
