CoinDCX, an Indian cryptocurrency exchange, has promoted Mridul Gupta to founding partner. He joined as the chief operating officer of the business in 2021. Gupta’s responsibilities in his new role will include meeting the company’s growth targets, focusing on international expansion, assembling elite teams, and increasing profitability. Moreover, Mridul will continue to oversee the Indian market, supporting CoinDCX’s alliances, business practices, advertising, and product offering to expedite the company’s deliberate growth in that nation.

According to the exchange, BitOasis might generate up to $50 million in revenue each year after being acquired.
