Following nearly four years at Coinbase, Duff Gordon has joined OpenAI as the head of EMEA Policy, as stated by a company spokesperson. Prior to his tenure at Coinbase, Duff Gordon spent approximately 8.5 years working in banking at Credit Suisse. He has yet to respond to a request for comment.
As an expert in cryptocurrency regulations, Duff Gordon recently highlighted the issue of UK banks restricting access to legitimate and compliant services for millions of customers, due to their failure to differentiate between low-risk operators registered with the Financial Conduct Authority and those with higher risks.
