I’ve decided to step down from running a Trust Wallet. It’s been an incredible 4-5 years journey of building and making crypto more accessible. https://t.co/60yFhtqYpE— Viktor Radchenko (@vikmeup) March 29, 2022
Meanwhile, in an official announcement, Radchenko shared how Trust Wallet has been his life’s work since 2017 and how he is forever grateful that tens of millions of people trust their platform to be stewards of their crypto assets.
Furthermore, the Trust Wallet founder also showed his utmost respect for CZ and the Binance team. Radchenko additionally said, “Binance has been an incredible partner for me with maximum autonomy I could have wished for, and for that, I have the utmost respect for CZ and the Binance team.”
On that note, Binance CEO Changpeng Zhao has replied to Radchenko’s tweet with his message of gratitude towards the former Trust Wallet CEO.
On behalf of the community, thank you for everything you have done! Most people probably cannot believe we’ve only met in person once. It was a true pleasure working with you, and hope there is more to come after your break. Take good care of yourself. All the best!— CZ Binance (@cz_binance) March 29, 2022
Moreover, Eowyn Chen, the current Marketing Vice President at Binance, will succeed in the CEO role to continue the platform’s mission and expand crypto adoption. In addition, Viktor Radchenko believes that Chen will be a “great team leader and will help to scale Trust Wallet to the next hundreds of millions of users.”
With that, the soon-to-be Trust Wallet CEO responded:
I am humbled and grateful for the trust that Viktor and CZ have in me to support the Trust Wallet team and community going forward. I learned two key values at Binance, being user-centric and community-driven, which I aim to bring to the Trust’s core team.
