PANews reported on December 5 that according to CoinDesk, after Chainalysis co-founder and long-time CEO Michael Gronager stepped down in September, co-founder Jonathan Levin has taken over as the company's new CEO.
Levin co-founded Chainalysis with Gronager in 2014. He declined to provide details on the reason for Gronager's departure, only stating that the board and Gronager mutually agreed that it was time for a change. Chainalysis President Sari Granat has been serving as interim CEO. The vacant board seat left by Gronager will be filled by Paul Auvil, a long-time executive in technology and finance, who will serve as an independent director and chair of the audit committee. Levin declined to comment on whether Chainalysis has any plans to go public or when.
