About
What I Do
I build distributed systems that replace centralized chokepoints. Most of my work focuses on infrastructure that actually stays up when it matters—not theoretical systems that look good in whitepapers.
Current focus: decentralized data streaming on Solana. The RPC infrastructure can't keep up with Solana's throughput. We're building something that can.
Timeline
windnetwork & Solana Infrastructure
Building decentralized data availability for Solana. Working on gossipsub-based distribution, incentivized storage, and historical data indexing at scale.
Stablecoin Research (v1ta.fi)
Research into algorithmic stablecoin mechanisms. Explored collateral strategies and peg stability mechanisms. Paused to focus on infrastructure work.
ShastraOS & Systems Research
Experimented with decentralized Linux distribution primitives. Built P2P package management and explored OS-level decentralization. Learned more about what doesn't work than what does.
Started Building
First serious systems work. Dove into Rust, distributed systems theory, and production infrastructure. Still learning.
Why I Write
Writing forces clarity. When you have to explain something in public, you find the gaps in your understanding fast. The feedback loop is brutal but necessary.
Building in isolation compounds knowledge but limits reach. Documenting in public creates accountability and attracts people solving similar problems. Clarity scales better than merit.
These notes are field reports, not tutorials. Expect benchmarks, battle scars, and strong opinions weakly held.
