MetaMask Splits from Consensys in Major Blockchain Shake-Up
Consensys Software Inc. is splitting into two companies, MetaMask and Consensys.
The separation will result in a consumer-focused business running the wallet and its products under Joe Lubin as chairman and CEO, while an enterprise-focused company called Consensys will handle institutional blockchain infrastructure, including the Linea layer 2.
Mike Kriak has been appointed CEO of Consensys, with David Cunningham as president and Declan Fox as chief product officer. Lubin will serve as executive chairman of Consensys.
