A Spot of News, Old Bean:
- The doyenne of legal jiggery-pokery and compliance at the crypto bazaar Portofino Technologies has uppity-left the premises.
- One Celyn Armstrong—no, not a secret agent but London’s own regulatory knight—hung around for a solid trice.
- And would you believe it, their ex-money man, the financial whiz Mark Blackborough, also vanished quicker than your last soufflé.
So here we are, with Celyn Armstrong, the chap who kept all those pesky rules in check at Portofino Technologies, deciding to exit stage left like a gentleman bidding adieu at the end of the Garden Party. 🍸
Following in his footsteps (or rather, his dust cloud) is Mark Blackborough, the fellow who once wielded the purse strings. Rumour has it he’s off on some new caper, possibly involving less paperwork and more cigars. 🍂
“We tip our hats to Celyn’s Herculean efforts in forging Portofino’s fortress of rulebooks and red tape,” said a company mouthpiece, presumably clutching a warm cup of Earl Grey as they typed. “Thanks to him, we scored those shiny licenses and controls that keep this crypto ship afloat.”
But fear not, gentle reader, a new heroine arrives on the scene! Enter Dilan Bastin, the dazzling new head of compliance, ready to tame the global markets with a flick of her legal wand. Good show! 🎩✨
Armstrong, the man of mystery, staying mum tighter than Aunt Agatha’s old biscuit tin. The sort of silence that suggests either a deep peace or plotting a dramatic return. 🕵️♂️
Before this escapade, our Celyn rubbed shoulders with the legal echelons of Dentons and Linklaters and did his financial watchdog bit at the FCA for over six years. Quite the pedigree, like a fox in a hound parade. 🦊
Not to be outdone, Cristian Dinu, a quantitative whizz (think numbers with a PhD in wizardry), also ghosted Portofino for the rival stable Optiver. The plot thickens, doesn’t it? 🍵
The Swiss outfit, which sounds terribly continental and swanky, hinted last month they’re flirting with the idea of stretching their tentacles toward New York and Singapore. Quite the jet-setter bunch! 🛩️
Let’s not forget the fairy tale beginning: Portofino hauled in a princely $50 million last year, spun into existence by two ex-Citadel wizards, Leonard Lancia and Alex Casimo, in 2021. A veritable start-up saga to rival the best of them. 📈
