Ripple Singapore has rejected crypto influencer BitBoy’s application to be the Director of Strategy and Operations.
Ben Armstrong (aka BitBoy) tweeted a rejection letter from Ripple’s Talent team after applying for a senior position earlier this year.
Background of Armstrong’s application
On Nov. 4, 2022, Armstrong applied for the senior position in response to a Ripple Singapore LinkedIn advertisement. He cited Ripple’s CTO, Joel Katz, as an inspiration.
If successful, Armstrong would be responsible for driving Ripple’s corporate strategy through cross-functional teams and ensuring cooperation between operating regions. He would also need to partner with the Finance Department to push annual planning.
Unfortunately for BitBoy, the company responded that it would review his application but only four days later sent Armstrong a rejection letter.
At press time, the job post had received over 200 applicants.
