Cameron Winklevoss left his spot on Gemini Europe's board of directors, AltFi reports, citing a Companies House filing. The investor, billionaire and co-founder of crypto exchange Gemini officially stopped being the director of its European branch on October 12. A spokesperson from the company confirmed the news to AltFi via email.

Cameron Winklevoss and his twin brother, Tyler Winklevoss, remain President and CEO at Gemini. The pair established the crypto exchange in 2014.
