I've known him for bucking trends actually. Back when every company was tripping over themselves to say how "Black Lives Matter" they were, he sent a memo to the company saying "if you support that stuff, that's fine, but do it on your own time. When you're at work, the focus is the company's mission. If you don't like this, here's a nice severance package." Something a low single-digit percentage of employees took the severance offer. It was a pretty brave move when the prevailing wind was towards all these social justice issues.
And he also bucks the trend by running a crypto company in the US instead of some random island in the Carribean and actually talking to regulators in the hopes of getting regulatory clarity.
