At Coinsub we’re introducing the concept of crypto payment agreements - a portable signed document - that can be authenticated on any of our participating blockchains and used to settle payments according to the details contained in the agreement. These payment agreements can express the full range of agreements from recurring payment, to metered billing and more - and be used to generate multiple transactions without having to resign. This censor-resistant decentralized payment network is the inevitable evolution of decentralized ledgers and moves humanity towards the freedom to pay.

Leveraging the agile methodology, I spearheaded a global team in the creation of a groundbreaking NFT-enabled mobile application, achieving a significant milestone with the delivery of a fully approved Minimum Viable Product (MVP) to app stores within an impressive two-month timeframe. Demonstrating expert technical prowess, I engineered and successfully deployed an ERC-721 NFT smart contract, featuring sophisticated airdrop and minting functionalities, alongside the creation of over 2000 distinctive NFTs. My leadership was instrumental in the development of a pioneering, health-care compliant, decentralized file storage protocol, utilizing the robust frameworks of IPFS and Ceramic Network, ensuring data integrity and security in sensitive sectors.Further accentuating my contributions to the tech landscape, I developed "Nectar," an innovative Layer 2 protocol founded on zkSync technology, specifically tailored for the secure execution of smart contracts within the healthcare domain. My work also encompassed the implementation of the Bob-tail consensus protocol within Ethereum's infrastructure, enhancing the efficiency of its proof-of-work consensus mechanism, an endeavor supported by an NSF grant, reflecting both innovation and academic endorsement.In an initiative to fortify data security and integrity, I launched "Health-Audit," an Ethereum-based event logging API, now deployed in the Azure marketplace. This solution provides an immutable audit trail, revolutionizing the way data security is demonstrated. My technical expertise further extended to the enhancement of Ethereum's L1 consensus protocol through the probabilistic graphene protocol, significantly boosting performance and reducing block times. I was also the driving force behind the development of the "Gov" hybrid consensus protocol for Ethereum, ingeniously blending proof of authority with proof of work mechanisms.
