Tanya Denisova, the former COO of Robinhood Crypto, has joined Agora, a stablecoin infrastructure company, as its head of operations. In this role, Denisova will oversee the scaling of Agora's rapidly growing AUSD stablecoin business, which processed over $20 billion in transfer volume in Q1 2026, marking a 355% year-over-year increase. Agora's decision to appoint Denisova is a strategic move to bolster its operational capabilities as it expands its product offerings and regulatory licenses. With her experience in scaling regulated crypto operations at Robinhood Crypto, Denisova is well-equipped to handle the increasing operational demands at Agora. Her tenure at Robinhood Crypto saw the operations team grow from three people to a multi-billion dollar business unit, spanning settlement, liquidity, trading, execution quality, and custody across regulated US and EU entities. Agora's growth trajectory and plans for expansion will likely rely on Denisova's expertise in navigating complex regulatory environments and building scalable operational infrastructure. As Agora continues to broaden its reach, Denisova's appointment is a significant step towards ensuring the company's operational framework can support its ambitious growth plans.
