Fantom Foundation, the nonprofit behind the development of high-perfromance blockchain Fantom (FTM) and associated dApps, released a statement to make things clear before the resignation of Andre Cronje.

Fantom (FTM) development continuing and accelerating

According to the official statement shared by Fantom Foundation on its blog, there was a lot of "miscommunication" after media outlets started to spin the narrative of Andre Cronje's decision to leave DeFi segment.

Largely, this statement is set to explain that the influence of Andre Cronje's decision on Fantom's progress and promotion should not be exaggerated.

As per the document, neither Cronje nor his colleague Anton Nell were core developers of Fantom (FTM). Like other products that had been curated by Cronje, Fantom (FTM) has its own team to be responsible for Fantom's future.

As such, the roadmap of Fantom is still valid: the team is even expanding its human and technical resources:

Fantom's technology development is continuing as normal. In fact, it is accelerating, with new hires being made.

Also, Fantom's representatives stressed that media outlets that spread the misinformation had their articles retracted in "one-two hours."

As covered by U.Today previously, Andre Cronje and Anton Nell decided to quit all activities in the decentralized finance segment. They left their advisory positions at Yearn.Finance, Solidly and so on.
