Chewy’s first investor takes two days off to learn all about crypto
Chewy co-founder Larry Cheng, who was elected to GameStop’s board of directors in early June, has taken to Twitter to announce that he will take two days off this month to deepen his knowledge of cryptocurrencies.
Cheng announced a 13% stake in the controversial video game retailer, whose shares exploded in early 2021 amid an armada of vengeful traders from Reddit.
The entrepreneur is asking his followers for suggestions on how to spend his time.
As reported by U.Today, GameStop began looking for an account manager focused on blockchain and non-fungible tokens earlier this month. Prior to that, it posted a bevy of other cryptocurrency-related job positions.
In May, GameStop announced that it had started building an Ethereum-based NFT platform.
