Binance, on the other hand, was one of the few exchanges that expanded operations during the current bearish phase. Who&#8217;s Next? Alex Harper, the Swyftx CEO, broke the news of the layoffs in a letter addressed to employees. He referred to the staff as &#8220;90 talented friends and employees&#8221;. He also distanced Swyftx from any association with the bankrupt exchange FTX. However, he also noted that Swyftx is not immune to the effects of such an event on the crypto market.
