The article does not mention the CEO transition that happened in 2020. James Smith stepped down as CEO and Simone Maini (already correctly listed under Key People) succeeded him. This is a significant leadership change covered by reliable sources.
Proposed addition to History section, after the sentence about Wells Fargo's investment
In April 2020, Elliptic named Simone Maini, previously chief operating officer, as CEO, succeeding co-founder James Smith.[1] Tdmoor (talk) 10:35, 20 February 2026 (UTC)
- I tried to locate additional coverage of this leadership transition, but couldn't find independent reliable sources discussing it. Most references appear to be crypto-industry outlets or the company's own announcement. Without stronger secondary coverage like reuters, WSJ, or other sources listed in WP:RSP, it may not be due for inclusion in the history section per WP:DUE. Once higher-quality sources cover the transition, it can be added. ◦ Sibshops (talk) 15:51, 13 March 2026 (UTC)
