Gemini cut three top executives, replacing its CFO and CLO, while co-founder Cameron Winklevoss absorbs COO duties after Marshall Beard’s departure. The exchange laid off 25% of staff, exited the UK, Australia and EU, and disclosed 2025 net losses of $587–602 million with adjusted EBITDA losses of $257–267 million.
1. Executive Team Overhaul
Gemini dismissed CFO Dan Chen and CLO Tyler Meade, appointing Danijela Stojanovic as interim CFO and Kate Freedman as interim CLO. COO Marshall Beard also exited, and co-founder Cameron Winklevoss will oversee all revenue-generating operations in his capacity as president.
2. Staff Reductions and Market Exits
Earlier this month, the exchange cut roughly 25% of its workforce to streamline efficiency. The firm also withdrew from the UK, Australia and the EU, citing insufficient regional demand to justify continued operations.
