Down The Crypto Rabbit Hole

My cryptocurrency adventure began in 2009, when I first encountered Satoshi's whitepaper. Since then, I've taken a keen interest in both the technological and financial aspects of Bitcoin. I've been proudly running a Bitcoin Core client since 2010. I worked on Bitcoin transaction security, chain analysis, and private transactions on the TOR network.

After the advent of Ethereum, I have been active in numerous decentralized finance platforms on EVM-compatible blockchains. I contributed to the creation of many decentralized applications and blockchain platforms. I gave seminars, lectures, and presentations regarding blockchain technology, evolution of digital assets and tokenization all around the world. I took part in and supervised the blockchain transformation of numerous defense projects. I designed a novel blockchain for embedded devices and military unmanned autonomous systems.

Currently, I am the founder of several DAOs. I am also interested in algorithmic cryptocurrency trading. I consider it a privilege to have been able to experience and see the development of this technological breakthrough.

Along with cryptocurrency, I enjoy planting palm trees in my garden. The name of my first tree is "Genesis".
