Taryn Walker
CEO and Co-Founder
Taryn is the co-founder and CEO of GetBitcoinLoans. Having discovered the ecosystem, she immediately understood and deeply appreciated the strong fundamentals that make Bitcoin such a sustainable store of value and a game-changing contributor to making the world a better place for all.
Taryn sees an underserved market in South Africa who respect bitcoin as an asset but find themselves without access to the full suite of financial services available to those living in fiat-land. Having successfully led multiple businesses, she co-founded GetBitcoinLoans to be a key part in changing that.
