Leslie Tam Joins CoinFlex as Chief Strategy Officer

Leslie Tam: A New Vision for CoinFlex

In a bold move, Leslie Tam, previously the head of trading at a prominent cryptocurrency exchange, has taken on the role of chief strategy officer at CoinFlex. His mission? To carve out new pathways for growth and innovation amid a rapidly evolving market. It’s like moving from a fancy yacht to a sleek speedboat—same waters, different speeds!

Innovating with Bracket Order Competitions

Tam shared his enthusiasm for ushering in fresh ideas at CoinFlex. He spoke about a new initiative: bracket order competitions. What’s that, you ask? Think of it as a high-stakes poker game, but instead of cards, you’re betting on trades in a market that’s cooler than a cucumber in the shade.

He remarked, “Here at CoinFlex we will strive to create a fun experience for traders as well as innovative offerings for different users of our services.” It’s not just about making profits; it’s about making the trading experience enjoyable—who knew trading could be fun?

The Path from Binance to CoinFlex

Before his leap into the CoinFlex universe, Tam was an influential player at Binance, overseeing their over-the-counter (OTC) trading operations. His expertise in VIP coverage and executive roles at Binance puts him in a prime position to elevate CoinFlex’s services. It’s a little like trading your rusty old bicycle for a high-tech e-bike—you’re bound to go much faster!

CoinFlex’s Unique Offerings

One of CoinFlex’s standout products is its prediction futures—basically placing bets on whether Facebook’s Libra will launch. They launched with a starting price of 30 cents, reflecting a somewhat optimistic 30% chance of success. It’s a gamble, but hey, isn’t that what crypto is all about?

Mark Lamb, CoinFlex’s CEO, said: “Facebook has the ability to rival the entire global banking system from day one, but…the political backlash has been brutal.”

Growing Funding and Future Prospects

This past August, CoinFlex secured a whopping $10 million in a funding round to support its Bitcoin futures settlements—major players in the industry stepped up, including Bitcoin Cash champion Roger Ver. With funding a bit like rocket fuel, CoinFlex is set to launch into the future. If all goes well, this exchange might just become the talk of the crypto town.
