BTCC Shakes Up Leadership: Dan Liu Takes Helm as Exchange Nears 14-Year Survival Milestone
Crypto’s oldest exchange just got a fresh face—Dan Liu steps into the CEO role as BTCC prepares to celebrate its 14th year in an industry where most startups don’t last 14 months.
Survivor’s bonus: While rivals burned through VC cash, BTCC quietly outlasted three bull cycles, two crypto winters, and at least one ’this time it’s different’ regulatory crackdown. Now Liu inherits the throne—can he steer the O.G. exchange past its teenage years?
Pro tip for Liu: Maybe don’t mention that time in 2014 when hackers made off with $5M in BTC. Some anniversaries are better left uncelebrated.
