Max Kaplan
As an early believer in cryptocurrency, Max was one of the first engineers hired at Kraken in 2017. He spent 6 years at Kraken as Senior Director of Engineering until leaving to start his own company, Orangefin Ventures, which became one of the largest staking providers on Solana. In late 2023, Orangefin Ventures was acquired by SOL Strategies (Nasdaq: STKE | CSE: HODL), and Max joined SOL Strategies as their Chief Technology Officer, helping bring Solana to Wall St.
