- The most common trait of the 32 CEOs and founders studied is that 100% of them are male. The USA is the most common birthplace with nine born stateside. France is the only other nation where multiple crypto CEOs were born, all the other countries only had one CEO.
Of the crypto CEOs studied, 93.3% of them achieved at least a degree level education, with the most common university addended being Harvard with four CEOs studying at the institution.
- There were only three institutions that attracted more than one CEO to study there. In joint second, both with three CEOs attending, are Oxford and Stanford University.
The field of study most commonly shared was economics, as eight CEOs studied the subject at university. Unsurprisingly, for an online cryptocurrency bunch, Computer Science was the second most studied subject with six. There was a four-way tie for third, with two CEOs having studied: International business, electrical engineering, physics, or general management.
