Forbes recently just released article on top 600 up and coming entrepreneurs aged below 30. In which 10 representatives are from the crypto and blockchain sectors.

Almost one-third of the crypto leaders featured are women, which signals a shrinking, though still significant gender gap in an industry notorious for low female participation. 

The 10 crypto industry awardess who came in the top 600 up and coming entrepreneurs are...

  • Soona Amhaz(Volt Capital)

  • Sam Bankman-Fried(FTX)

  • Joey Krug(Augur)

  • Alexander Liegl(Layer1 Technologies)

  • Jack Mallers(Zap Solutions)

  • Flori Marquez(blockfi)

  • Charlie Noyes(Paradigm)

  • Brian Tubergen(CoinList)

  • Amiti Uttarwar(Bitcoin Core Developer)

  • Athanasios Karachotzitis

  • Jeong Woo Park

  • Andrew Yang(Authenticiti)

Flori Marquez(blockfi)

Flori Marquez is the co-founder of BlockFi, the only retail-focused, interest-earning platform that is institutionally backed and U.S. domiciled and regulated. Its four offices and 65 employees serve more than 60,000 accounts globally, managing nearly $500 million in assets. From witnessing Argentinian family members cope with economic instability, Marquez understands the power of bringing U.S.-grade financial services to the unbanked. She has spent her career managing alternative lending products; she built and optimized a $125 million portfolio for Bond Street (since acquired by Goldman Sachs) and developed institutional partnerships at Oak Hill Advisors. Marquez has been honored by the Wing, profiled in TechNYC and included in the Quartz Founders Index. She is the first college graduate (Cornell University) in her family.

Sam Bankman-Fried(FTX)

Sam Bankman-Fried is the 27-year old co-founder of Alameda Research, along with Gary Wang, co-founder and CTO. The name of the firm is misleading: Alameda is actually a crypto trading shop (or “liquidity provider”, to use the firm’s lingo). It manages over $100 million worth of digital assets, with daily turnover as high as $1.5 billion, making it one of the biggest players in crypto.

Alameda reaches those big numbers because of the nature of his trading strategy: high-frequency bets in derivatives. But that wasn’t enough for Bankman-Fried, or “SBF”, as he likes to be called (it’s his Twitter handle). Early in 2019 he set up a crypto derivatives exchange in Hong Kong called FTX.

Joey Krug, Co-founder, Augur

He is co-founder of the Forecast Foundation, which contributes to the development of Augur (a decentralized oracle and prediction market protocol), and Eco (a cryptocurrency that borrows elements of traditional currencies). Prior to Pantera, Joey built a sound based Point-of-Sale payment system.

Joey Krug is a co-chief investment officer at Pantera Capital and Core Dev on Augur, based in San Francisco, California.

Joey is co-CIO at Pantera Capital, one of the largest blockchain-focused investment firms, which he joined in 2017. He is the co-founder of the Forecast Foundation, which contributes to the development of Augur (a decentralized oracle and prediction market protocol), and Beam (a cryptocurrency that borrows elements of traditional currencies). Before Pantera, Joey built a sound based Point-of-Sale payment system.

Brian Tubergen, Co-founder, Coinlist

Brian Tubergen is the co-founder and Chief Product Officer at CoinList where the world’s best digital asset companies manage their token sales. Long-term, CoinList is building the leading platform for token-based financial services. It emerged as an independent company from AngelList and Protocol Labs’ collaboration running the Filecoin token sale. Prior to CoinList, Brian was the director of product at AngelList. He led the team responsible for over $850 million in investments. Before that, Brian worked at Facebook and was the top Computer Science student at Princeton.
