OpenServ Appoints Joey Kheireddine as Head of Blockchain, Poaching Top Talent from Eliza Labs (Formerly AI16z)

OpenServ just scored a major coup—snagging blockchain heavyweight Joey Kheireddine from elite crypto incubator Eliza Labs. The move signals aggressive expansion into decentralized infrastructure.

Kheireddine brings serious pedigree from his tenure at the Andreessen Horowitz spin-off, where he helped architect next-gen Web3 protocols. Now he's tasked with supercharging OpenServ's blockchain division—because apparently traditional cloud computing just isn't expensive enough to maintain.

Industry watchers see this as classic talent warfare. When big names jump ship between crypto giants, it usually means someone's about to launch something massive—or desperately needs to distract from last quarter's burn rate.

This hiring spree isn't just about credentials—it's about positioning. OpenServ wants a piece of the institutional DeFi action, and they're willing to pay Silicon Valley premiums to get it. Because nothing says 'financial revolution' like poaching executives with venture capital pocket change.
