"This week was the first week in 6.5 years that my politics and rhetoric put the team in [harm's] way," he wrote. "As such, I have decided to step aside as CEO."
Ryan Selkis stepped down as CEO of Messari, the crypto data and research firm he co-founded, following a series of inflammatory tweets about politics, civil war and his desire for an immigrant to get expelled from the country.
He announced his departure Friday on X, the social media platform where he pumped out a flood of controversial messages this week.
