Tigran Gambaryan, Binance's head of financial crime compliance, has departed from the company to seek new opportunities in the public or private sector, following his detention in Nigeria in 2024. Gambaryan, a former IRS agent, joined Binance in 2021, where he built a team of experts to align the exchange with enforcement standards and handled over 57,000 law enforcement requests. His departure is part of a broader trend, as several Binance executives have left in recent years amid ongoing regulatory scrutiny. In his LinkedIn announcement, he expressed a desire to focus on new challenges and make a continued impact in technology compliance. Notably, Gambaryan’s experience in Nigeria highlighted the complexities of the crypto landscape and reflected the increasing need for experienced professionals who can navigate between technology and regulatory compliance.
