Aptos co-founder and CEO Mo Shaikh has announced his resignation to embark on a new venture. Shaikh, who co-founded Aptos Labs in 2021 with Avery Ching, played a pivotal role in the development and launch of the Aptos blockchain.
In a recent social media post, Shaikh expressed his gratitude for the opportunity to lead Aptos and his confidence in the team’s ability to continue driving the project forward. He will remain involved with Aptos as a strategic advisor, offering his expertise and guidance.
Avery Ching, Aptos’ co-founder and CTO, will assume the role of CEO. Ching is a seasoned technologist with a deep understanding of blockchain technology and a strong vision for the future of Aptos. Under his leadership, Aptos is expected to continue its focus on innovation, scalability, and user experience.
Shaikh’s departure marks a significant change for Aptos, but the company remains committed to its mission of building a secure, scalable, and efficient blockchain platform. With a strong staff and a clear strategy, Aptos is well-positioned to continue its growth and development in the next years.
