Today, we are excited to welcome Duncan Hoffman as Kiln’s newly appointed VP Revenue. Duncan brings exceptional skills, experience, and alignment with Kiln’s mission.
Duncan began his career as a research assistant at the University of Chicago and a research fellow at the National Institute of Diabetes and Digestive and Kidney Diseases. He then founded NextPotential, where he worked on waste-to-fuel CO2 conversion solutions, before joining Palantir as a Deployment Strategist, leading some of the company’s largest engagements with financial institutions in Europe.
Duncan joined Chainalysis shortly after the company’s Series A as the first commercial hire in London leading their international government business. He went on to lead the EMEA region as General Manager and scale the business through years of growth that led to an $8.6B valuation and established Chainalysis as the largest SaaS company in the Web3 industry and market-leading solution for cryptocurrency investigation to help build trust in blockchains.
We are delighted to be building Kiln with Duncan as we bring staking to the spotlight.
It’s a honor to welcome Duncan to Kiln!
