Kristina Campbell, the Chief Financial Officer (CFO) of Ripple Labs, has announced her departure from the company. She is now joining a healthcare company after overseeing finances during the SEC battles.
“A big thank you to everyone at Ripple who made the last few years so memorable,” Campbell stated in a LinkedIn post.
Ripple’s CFO Resigns, Choosing to Exit the Crypto Industry
Campbell revealed her resignation in a LinkedIn statement on October 9.
According to her profile, she joined Ripple in April 2021, merely five months after the US Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) initiated legal proceedings against the company. She shared her plans to transition into the healthcare industry:
I’m thrilled to share that I will be joining Maven Clinic as CFO. Throughout my career, I’ve seen firsthand how technology can make people’s lives better, and Maven is proving that every day at the forefront of healthcare.
Campbell refrained from specifying the reasons for her departure from the company, but it coincides with a period of notable successes for Ripple.
In December 2020, the SEC filed a lawsuit against Ripple and two of its executives, claiming that it violated security laws.
However, on July 13, the court ruled a partial victory for both the SEC and Ripple. Ripple’s native token, XRP, was deemed a security for institutional sales but not for retail sales.
At the time of publication, XRP’s price is $0.49.

The SEC’s most recent motion to appeal the ruling was denied. However, the trial date for appeal is still expected to go ahead in April 2024.
This coincides with the departure of several executives from crypto exchange Binance’s United States division, Binance.US.
On September 13, BeInCrypto reported the departure of its CEO, Brian Shroder, from the exchange amidst its ongoing legal dispute with the SEC.
Just one day later, the head of legal and chief risk officer at Binance.US also left the exchange.
Meanwhile, blockchain data firm Chainalysis recently reduced its workforce by 15%, citing the volatile crypto market as the primary cause.
