Paradigm CEO Highlights Gen Z's Impact on Crypto Innovation

Paradigm, a crypto investment firm managing approximately $12 billion, is led by co-founder and CEO Matt Huang. According to Odaily, Huang acknowledges that while Gen Z employees can sometimes create chaos, their creativity and technological breakthroughs are impressive. He remains committed to investing in young talent, citing the example of Charlie Noyes, who joined Paradigm at 19 after dropping out of MIT. Noyes played a crucial role in MEV research and Flashbots investment, contributing significantly to the Ethereum ecosystem. Huang likens the Paradigm team to running an 'X-Men Academy,' noting that despite the unpredictability of young employees, their technical skills and innovation often surpass those of traditional professionals.
