Kraken CEO Jesse Powell Hits Out at Triggered Employees

Kraken CEO Jesse Powell has hit out at a small group of employees employed at the cryptocurrency exchange for their lack of cultural fit with the company. He said that when things started to look grim, sensitivities and the misalignment came through. People focused on minor slights, first world problems rather than our really big, important Mission to help billions of people. These problems according to Powell included the use of the N-word, the use of pronouns or lack thereof, and debates on whether differences in human sex exist. In particular, he derided the focus on these issues instead of concentrating on building out the company's products.
