The former face of Robinhood's crypto business left to help lead NFT portfolio tracking app Floor. She explained the move on Decrypt's gm podcast. The quick-swipe stock trading app launched in 2013, and didn't add crypto for five years. It started with Bitcoin and Ethereum trading only in February 2018, then in July added Litecoin, Bitcoin Cash, and Dogecoin—and got major blowback for the latter. (Throughout the crypto surge of 2021, DOGE was a drug for Robinhood until it became an albatross.)
Since then it has added Bitcoin SV, Ethereum Classic, Compound, Polygon, Solana, and Shiba Inu, bringing the number of total supported coins to 11.
Christine Brown was there for all of it. The former Googler joined Robinhood in 2017, before it had ever touched crypto, then became its first Crypto COO in May 2021 and grew the crypto team from five people to 100 in one year.more (https://decrypt.co/102552/why-christine-brown-left-robinhood-for-an-nft-app)
