Coinbase added a net 179 employees over 90 days, with engineering absorbing the bulk of 200 new hires — signaling infrastructure buildout even as several senior leaders departed for rivals. Leadership turnover included a CXO-level product director moving to Kraken, a VP of business development heading to Airwallex, and exits from stablecoin, policy partnerships, and risk control roles. The firm pulled 11 hires from Deribit and drew talent from Amazon, Block, and AWS, reinforcing crypto-native and cloud infrastructure pipelines. New VP appointments spanned trust & safety, Base communications, and corporate legal — functions that track regulatory and operational maturity in a competitive exchange landscape.
