Cryptocurrency exchange Crypto com is cutting staff by 20 percent in the ongoing crypto winter.
Aside from the bankruptcy of one of the world’s largest cryptocurrency exchanges, FTX, crypto companies are facing challenges with the impact of the current crypto winter. Many crypto companies have started to renew their financial structures to avoid an FTX-like collapse. Crypto exchange Crypto.com is also making a layoff and restructuring move. The crypto exchange is reportedly planning to lay off workers as a step in its restructuring process. Another bad week has been added to the already bad week for crypto employment.
