Say hello to our newest Okcoiners

We’re excited to announce the appointment, subject to regulatory approval, of Erald Ghoos as General Manager of Okcoin Europe, based in Malta, and David Renold as Chief Executive Officer of OKG Payments, Okcoin’s Ireland-based affiliate. OKG Payments plans to provide permitted products and services supporting Okcoin Europe and other markets.

Since we operate in over 190 countries and territories, the best way for us to serve our global customer base is through regional business hubs. The appointment of two new global leaders is an important step forward in executing our global strategy.

From our CEO, Hong Fang – “Okcoin is pleased to welcome Mr. Renold and Mr. Ghoos to our growing international team. They have each held distinguished roles in both crypto and traditional finance. We look forward to the value that their experience will add as we scale our global business. These appointments are also a testament to our continued focus on attracting and building a best-in-class global team who are passionate about shaping a different and better future together.”

Erald Ghoos joins Okcoin’s Europe team in Malta as a veteran fintech leader, having previously served as COO and CCO of Crypto.com, Head of Europe at Binance, and co-COO for Amber Group, among other roles. As a general manager at Okcoin, Ghoos will oversee all operations under Okcoin’s Malta license, which the company secured in 2021, and lead the growing team in Okcoin’s Malta office.

David Renold is an expert in crypto and investment banking, having formerly held leadership roles at Coinbase and UBS. He also established the operations of a startup that built arbitrage trading across 20 crypto exchanges and led compliance, complaints, and operations teams. As CEO of Okcoin Ireland, Renold looks forward to leveraging his expertise in organizational management, crypto, and traditional finance operations to enhance Okcoin performance in the region.

Excited to have you with us, Erald and David!
