Andre Cronje, Michael Kong, and David Richardson resigned from the Sonic Labs board this week, handing control of the struggling layer-one (L1) project to a new executive team. The three founding board members built Sonic Labs, formerly the Fantom Foundation, from the ground up. Cronje served as chief technology officer and is known across DeFi for creating Yearn Finance. Kong ran the Fantom Foundation as CEO. Richardson held the role of executive chairman.
