Swyftx Cuts Cut 35% Of Employees In The Difficult Market Context

Swyftx, an Australian-based cryptocurrency exchange, announced the layoffs of a total of 90 employees in anticipation of the worst-case scenario that could result from the impact of FTX and a projected decline in global trading volumes in 2019.

The co-CEO, Alex Harper, announced the information in a statement on December 5 and noted that, although the company had no exposure to FTX, it was “not immune” to the consequences of the collapse of the exchange.

According to a spokeswoman, the exchange had about 259 people before the layoffs, which would indicate that Swyftx is cutting about 35% of its total employment.

Swyftx added that it has no direct connection to the insolvent crypto industry behemoth. FTX. The company claimed that the layoffs were due to FTX’s disruption of the cryptocurrency market.

Approximately 630,000 people use the cryptocurrency exchange, according to Harper’s blog post.

The layoffs occur as the cryptocurrency market is still reeling from the fallout from FTX and the ensuing market slump. Bybit made a 30% staff reduction announcement on Sunday.
