Adam Lavine

Co-Founder

Ethos was founded by a father/son team Adam and Shingo Lavine. Adam and Shingo helped build the core crypto infrastructure that became Voyager, a multi-billion dollar public company, but left in 2021 after ethical disagreements with management. The Lavines remained one of Voyager’s biggest shareholders, and lost a generational fortune when Voyager went bankrupt due to risky unsecured loans. Adam and Shingo vowed to rebuild a “Decentralized Voyager” that gave consumers all the benefits of an self-custody and an easy trading platform without the risks of centralized, commingled funds controlled by unscrupulous management. Ethos is a realization of that vision.
