Co-founder of Taiwan-based crypto exchange Cobinhood has been removed from corporate affairs since late April 2019, the firm announced on its Telegram group on May 6.
Tai-yuan Chen, also known as Popo Chen, has âceased to participateâ in the firm due to âpersonal and investor disputes,â the announcement says.

While the exchange has not specified the nature of Chenâs alleged personal behaviors and its impact on the team, Cobinhood still noted that it will continue with its operations as per usual.
Following the announcement, Cobinhood team said it would collect user feedback and questions on the matter, claiming that they are going to provide a Q&A session on Wednesday at 8:00 p.m. Taiwan time.
