A little over a month ago, another promising young crypto genius, 29-year-old MakerDAO early developer Nikolas Mushegian, drowned to death. Now, the creator of the Amber Group has passed away. Mushegian was pulled by the tide and drowned on Condado Beach in San Juan. This beach is one of the most dangerous beaches for swimmers and surfers.

Tiantian Kullander: Essential to Amber Group's Success

Kullander was crucial to Amber's phenomenal success, which included its $3 billion valuation earlier this year. He established Amber Group in 2017 with a group of business insiders, including former workers from Morgan Stanley and Goldman Sachs Group Inc. He was given a spot on the Forbes Under 30 list in 2019. The loss of another brilliant figure in the cryptosphere is such a tragedy.

According to a statement on the Amber Group website, the business said:

Tiantian (or “TT”, as he was lovingly known) was instrumental to the founding of Amber and a pillar of our success. He put his heart and soul into the company, in every stage of its growth. He led by example with his intellect, generosity, humility, diligence and creativity.

Close friends of Tiantian Kullander refer to him as TT. He is remembered by The Amber Group as a dedicated spouse and caring parent. His contemporaries will recall him as a well-respected pioneer in the cryptocurrency sector. As this was TT's ambition and passion, Kullander's legacy will continue, and the remaining members of the group will work even harder to keep Amber at the top of the industry.

Final Thoughts

Tiantian Kullander is highly regarded by those who had the opportunity to work with him and is remembered as a visionary and a leader in the cryptocurrency industry. Kullander's ideas and resourcefulness inspired numerous businesses, towns, and people.

All of us find this news to be heartbreaking, but especially the families and friends of TT. I find it tragic; may TT's soul rest in peace. No matter where you are or what you do, safety should always come first. Even when things don't turn out the way you planned, please remember to take care of yourself.
