  #JesPoS seemed like less work. @krakenfx is in excellent hands with @DavidLRipley. I'll continue to be highly engaged as Chairman. Big thanks to the team for trusting me, our investors for taking a chance, and all my industry peers on the front lines. 🙇🏼‍♂️ https://fortune.com/..…

  Hats off to @jespow for building Kraken for 11 years, with many contributions to the industry. Like raising a kid, a founder has to let go sooner or later. All the best! 🫡 https://www.forbes.com/...

  Jesse from kraken stepping down means theyre prepping for an IPO right? Probs need suits and someone less ‘outspoken’

  Huge respect, warm thoughts and best wishes to @jespow and @DavidLRipley both. JP is a quiet legend for the crypto and Kraken storms he and Kraken weathered... with exchange reputation intact. Kraken has a good rep at his exit. Truly unique. End of an era, indeed. https://twitter…

  Shout out to @jespow - incredible run as CEO and a true champion of crypto and freedom. Also one hell of a nice guy. Thank you for everything you've done! https://twitter.com/...

  Jesse stood up for crypto privacy and crypto freedoms when it mattered and when it wasn't easy to do. We can all learn from that example. https://twitter.com/...

  I hope the new CEO has Jesse's same pro privacy stance. https://twitter.com/...

  every company has the moment where they have to ask themselves if they're “for real” or not. they weren't and have decided they'd like to be. https://twitter.com/...
