Ethereum Co-Founder Joseph Lubin joins ErisX board

Crypto trading outfit ErisX has expanded its board of directors.

The startup, which in October secured an undisclosed investment from TD Ameritrade, the US-based online broker, has brought in Ethereum Co-Founder and Founder of the Ethereum development studio ConsenSys, Joseph Lubin, and Cris Conde, a FinTech entrepreneur.

They will serve alongside the likes of Don Wilson, CEO of DRW, Antonio Gracias, Managing Partner at Valor Equity Partners and Thomas Chippas, CEO of ErisX.

“ErisX has a unique position in the market with support from a wide range of investors as well as experienced leaders at the helm,” says Lubin.

“I look forward to bringing my experience with decentralised technologies and digital assets to a model that will further democratise access to digital assets. 2019 is likely to be a breakthrough year for digital assets, and the exceptional ErisX team is poised to lead.”
