Olubunmi Fabanwo; From GTBank to Mono to Binance

Olubunmi Fabanwo worked for GTBank from 2015 to 2021, although he already had his eyes set on the blockchain technology industry because he thought it “would change finance forever.”

The 2020 lockdown was a defining moment for him. He decided to take blockchain up by doing a lot of research. Also, he made a viral post on LinkedIn during the lockdown about clocking age 30. He capitalised on the social capital it brought.
