On Monday, Rohun Vora announced his resignation as chief executive, bringing an end to his three-year tenure. He’s the founder behind the DeGods NFT collection. Vora shared news of his exit on X, saying that his tenure as the CEO of DeGods is finished, the overall DeGods story is not. His role on the project will change now from full-time to advisory, he will continue to support DeGods and advise the team creatively. This move comes as the DeGods collection sees a significant jump in sales volume on several blockchains.
Vora's Departure and New Leadership
We were excited to see Vora announce his successors – 0x_chill and Pastagotsauce. They will assume leadership over DeGods. He didn’t elaborate on his decision to leave. Vora explained he’s not finished walking away from the project entirely.
Today is my last day as CEO of DeGods. My chapter is closing, but the story isn’t over. 0x_chill & Pastagotsauce will be taking over. - Rohun Vora
Vora’s sustained presence indicates a confident transition and long-term dedication to the DeGods ecosystem.
Controversies and Associations
Rohun Vora, connected to the “LA Vape Cabal.” Beyond his extensive worship in meme coins, he’s a supporter of all different types of blockchain projects. In the past, Vora has often found himself forced to separate from controversial crypto projects. He’s publicly denied affiliation with a token when insider trading accusations started flying, along with influencer Faze Banks and Threadguy.
Vora’s fingerprints were all over the LIBRA token, once touted by now-President Javier Milei. He went on to explain that he was not running from the law or involved in any current criminal investigations. His statement was meant to reassure everyone concerned with his past dealings that he would be transparent in the future.
Sales Surge Amidst Leadership Change
The DeGods NFT collection has recently experienced a massive spike in sales. The NFT collection’s sales volume on Ethereum surged by more than 156% in the past week.
The DeGods collection is up 323% in sales the past 30 days, up to over $250,000. The sales spike shows there is still a strong appetite for the DeGods NFT collection, even after the change of hands at the top.
