Moreover, Mashinsky issued the following statement: “Since our time in telecom, I’ve seen Guillermo confidently lead technology teams through tough challenges.

At the same time, I can’t wait to see the future of Celsius take root and thrive under the leadership and care of Nuke.”

It should be noted that Mashinsky founded Arbinet and worked together with Bodnar.
