BitGo Holdings chief operating officer Jody Mettler to step down in October
BitGo Holdings (NYSE:BTGO) announced COO Jody Mettler will resign on October 16, 2026. Her departure is not due to disagreements with the company. BitGo reported a 79.6% revenue increase to $4.3B in Q2 but faced a $4.2M adjusted EBITDA loss. Analysts adjusted price targets, with Mizuho lowering its target to $11 and Rosenblatt to $10, both maintaining positive ratings.
