GM Crypto
Johann Kerbrat is Senior Vice President and General Manager, Crypto and International at Robinhood, where he is responsible for the overall strategy, product development, and business operations of the crypto unit. Since joining Robinhood in 2021, he has overseen the expansion of its digital asset offerings, including the launch of a self-custody wallet, international expansion into the European Union, the acquisition of the global exchange Bitstamp, and the introduction of products including crypto staking and tokenised stocks.
