Growth operations and partnerships at CoinW, optimizing exchange growth systems and futures liquidity.
What I'm looking for
At CoinW, I built and executed a growth operations framework focused on conversion, trading activity, and net fee contribution. I also designed futures liquidity and trading pod systems that contributed to multi-million USDT monthly futures volume with positive net fee impact.
At MEXC, I executed localized growth and brand campaigns across African markets, including P2P growth campaigns and campus activations. I also coordinated regional PR, community, ambassador, and affiliate initiatives.
Across Bitget, Bybit, Bibox Exchange, and other crypto platforms, I worked on business development, user acquisition, and community growth. At Bybit, my campaigns and campus strategies generated 1,000 to 3,000 new sign-ups per month and over $500,000 in monthly trading volume.
My work focuses on growth operations and ecosystem partnerships across digital asset infrastructure. I’m especially interested in how stablecoins, cross-border payments, and tokenized real-world assets can connect crypto with traditional financial systems.
