Layoffs at ConsenSys affected no more than ten percent of its employees and was mostly confined to support staff, according to Executive Director of Enterprise and Social Impact Vanessa Grellet.

ConsenSys founder Joseph Lubin says the crypto-umbrella company remains strong and is re-balancing strategies.
