At the young age of 30, Tiantian Kullander, one of the founders of Hong Kong-based digital asset company Amber Group, has passed away suddenly.

Tiantian Kullander passed away in his sleep on November 23. The company confirmed this sad news on their website.

They highlighted his willingness to collaborate and his desire to help others, and expressed their sorrow for the loss of “a great partner and a true friend.”

Prior to this, he worked as a trader at both finance giants and was listed in the Forbes 30 Under 30 in 2019.

The start-up had gained a valuation of $3 billion earlier this year following a $200 million funding round.

The company stated, “TT’s legacy will live on, and we will continue to work diligently to fulfill TT’s ambition and dream of making Amber the leading company in our industry.”

The statement also requested that the privacy of Kullander’s family be respected during this difficult time, as he is survived by his wife and their beloved son.
