Binance, the cryptocurrency exchange, is experiencing the departure of key executives as regulatory scrutiny intensifies across the globe. Mayur Kamat, Binance's head of product, has confirmed his resignation after nearly two years with the firm. Kamat expressed his intention to step down and pass on product leadership to the next generation of leaders at Binance. After 20 years of continuous product work, he also mentioned that it is a good time for him to take a break. Kamat expressed gratitude to the CEO, Changpeng Zhao, and the entire leadership team for the opportunity to work at Binance. Prior to joining Binance, Kamat held product management positions at Google and Agoda. During his tenure, he played a role in growing Binance's user base from 80 million to over 150 million in just 18 months. Kamat is recognized as an early adopter of Bitcoin, having purchased his first two bitcoins in 2011. The recent departure of Kamat follows a series of resignations at Binance, including the chief strategy officer, Patrick Hillmann, who cited personal reasons for leaving. However, observers speculate that these departures may be related to Binance's ongoing investigation by the US Department of Justice. Other notable departures include general counsel Han Ng and senior vice president for compliance Steven Christie, who left in early July.
