Turquoise announce technology and CEO
After the disappointing outcome over Plus Markets, various factions are coming out and poking fun at Turquoise. Unlike BOAT, Turquoise has little to show for its efforts so far, and are still looking for a Chief Executive. What happened?

Stirring BOAT’s waters
