Hi there! It’s good to see you on my blog! I launched it to share with you some of the thoughts, ideas and experiences I’ve had working as a blockchain developer. My main area of interest as well as passion is cryptography and blockchain development, which I combine while working at Distributed Lab.

Here are some of my biggest projects that I am proud to share:

Projects:

• Rarimo - core contributor and main architect (Cosmos SDK, ECDSA TSS, Go).

• Bulletproofs++ Rust & Go - implementation of novel range proof protocol in discrete logarithm setting.

• Solana Program Library - main maintainer of the Distributed Lab Solana program library.

• Paxos BFT library - architect and team lead of the BPCon protocol library implementation on Rust.

Papers:

• Bulletproofs++. Constructions and Examples - document introduces some clarification and corrections to Bulletproofs++ original paper.

• Monero RingCT explained - a brief introduction to the Monero RingCT protocol with a high-level overview of the cryptographic primitives it relies on.

• ZK-STARKs explained - a short and simple explanation of the ZK-STARK protocol principles.

• Private coins extension with verifiable encryption - an approach to share the symmetrically encrypted amount in a couple with the Pedersen commitment while amounts are proved to be equal.

Also, I own a monorepo which I typically use for learning purposes or to test a new crypto framework.

If you have any questions or suggestions, please contact me:
