A co-founder of the defunct crypto lending business BlockFi has made her next move.
Flori Gilroy is now the senior vice president of SoFi’s crypto unit.
The new hire was quietly made official via an update to the masthead on SoFi’s website and confirmed by a source familiar with SoFi’s business operations. It’s unclear when Gilroy took on the new role.
Gilroy and SoFi did not immediately return requests for comment.
Gilroy went by Flori Marquez while helping run BlockFi. After the bankrupt lender’s other co-founder Zac Prince was scooped up by Galaxy, both of BlockFi’s co-founders have now returned to roles in the crypto industry.
Once a leading crypto lending business with a slew of prominent backers, BlockFi was caught in the fallout from Three Arrows Capital’s bankruptcy in 2022. FTX acquired the business for $240 million, but following the exchange’s collapse, BlockFi filed for bankruptcy itself.
