Arthur Cheong-led crypto investment firm DeFiance Capital is losing its head of portfolio growth, Yeou Jie Goh.

Goh resigned from DeFiance last week and is set to join the blockchain project Chromia as its head of the Asia Pacific region next month, Goh told The Block. He worked for DeFiance for over two years.

Cheong confirmed Goh's departure to The Block, saying that he is leaving "to pursue opportunities in the project building side, something he's interested in given his experience working with our portfolio companies."

Chromia co-founder Or Perelman also confirmed Goh's appointment, saying that his "experience and industry acumen" will help position Chromia for "continued success" as it prepares for the mainnet launch next year.
