A little about me
Hello.
This is my personal blog where I write in about a broad variety of topics, though most are pretty technical in nature. Infosec, business, and privacy.
Ever since I was 7 years old I self-taught various programming languages, I learned reverse engineering, I started a company, sold it. Then I co-founded Discreet, a privacy-respecting L1 with EUTXO programmability, which ultimately ended up being economically & regulatorily unviable due to EU compliance tightening on anonymizing cryptocurrencies (such as Monero, ZCash, etc.).
In general, I love building consumer-facing apps and protocols. Either socially interesting, or architecturally complex. I find peer-to-peer and zero-knowledge technology fascinating.
That is what you can expect from this blog, a lot of technical writing, networking, cryptography, infosec, with the occasional opinion piece thrown in there, as well as hobbies/projects I am working on, hopefully this can serve as a sort of CV eventually.
