The ex-head of sales at JPMorgan Bank Samir Shah, despite the fall in the market and a wave of layoffs, moved to the position of top manager at the investment company Pantera Capital.
Samir Shah announced on LinkedIn that he left the bank to take up the position of chief operating officer at cryptocurrency investment company Pantera Capital. He noted that after “12 fantastic years at JPMorgan” in sales, strategy and digital, it’s time to start a new professional chapter of my life.
“As for my next step, I am pleased to announce that I will be joining Pantera Capital as COO. Pantera is one of the leading blockchain investors in the industry and I am excited to partner with Dan Morehead, Joey Krug and the entire Pantera team to help take the organization to the next level,” said Shah.
Shah follows the beaten path from Wall Street to the crypto business. In early May, Christine Moy, head of crypto and blockchain at JPMorgan, left the bank to head digital assets at private equity firm Apollo Global Management.
In April, a consortium founded by Circle and Coinbase announced that former U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) Linda Jeng would join the team. The head of the US Financial Institutions Regulatory Agency (FINRA), Robert Cook, amid massive layoffs, offered the dismissed specialists a job in the department.
