The CEO also highlighted the greed of the crypto industry that has led to many crypto companies going bankrupt, with the likes of FTX, 3AC, LUNA, and others being part of the domino effect that has placed many companies and projects in a difficult spot.
Apart from the fear and greed dominant in the crypto space as outlined by ConsenSys CEO, the current macroeconomic difficulties have also had a huge impact on the current situation of the crypto space, making it difficult for many companies and creating unrest as a result of surging inflation.
The Ethereum (ETH) development company ConsenSys through its CEO Joseph, stresses that this tough decision is required to strengthen the core values of its companies, including the likes of MetaMask and Infura_io, as this will enhance the development of people to build on, access, and use web3 enabling MetaMask to continue as a permissionless web3 platform.
This decision will enable ConsenSys to pursue an innovative new offering and to empower developers and creators who are striving to make web3 more accessible for many as they grow other avenues like web3 commerce, DAO communities, and decentralized identity.
ConsenSys CEO’s goal in streamlining the company is to reduce operating costs while increasing the strength and focus of product teams to reach its goal and continue to strive.
The CEO believes this challenging moment gives opportunities for companies that have struggled and others that have failed to build a strong, better-decentralized system in the future.
Departing employees have been assured of support and employee packages as they transition to a new journey.
