The leadership read

A change at the top rarely stays at the top. Bybit's move reshapes the layer beneath it in the sector as a new leader sets priorities and the team re-forms. Watch the first two or three appointments that follow; they signal direction more reliably than any statement.

Market context: The wider read — a Talent Market Index of 104.6 (Hot), down 1.9 month-on-month — shows EMEA signal flow easing (-2.2pts).

Bybit: 5 signals in the last 90 days; 0.3% of MitchelLake's Asia signal flow; 6 tracked across 105 days.
