I build technical solutions that empower the individual. After starting two successful tech ventures (SONECT & Validity Labs), I am currently working on radically new paradigms facilitated by blockchain and other decentralized technologies.I am contributing to a privacy-first web3 with HOPRnet.org. Privacy is a major topic for the web3, powering the next generation of web applications, platforms and services. I am also interested in the future of work towards a post-corporate era. Do humans need companies to create value? Digital organizations such as DAOs (decentralized autonomous organizations) are a major shift away from traditional employment, organizations and the way we work.Before joining the blockchain and crypto ecosystem, I worked as a postdoctoral fellow and PhD student at ETH Zurich in the domain of microtechnology and microfabrication for biomedical applications such as drug discovery, cancer research and neglected tropical diseases.I am happy to engage in discussions and support people who #buidl:- any sort of privacy project that improve the limitations of VPNs, TOR or other P2P applications- truly decentralized web3 applications based on blockchain and other P2P technologies such as IPFS, Libp2p and other decentralized computation, decentralized storage or decentralized value networks- on-chain privacy in the blockchain domain such as zk-SNARKs, zk-STARKs, BulletProofs, Optimistic Rollups and zk-Rollups - DAOs or other forms of digital organizations inspiring a future beyond today's corporations- tokenized capital markets and token ecosystems that go beyond the ICO and STO hype- stable tokens that combine the best of crypto currencies such as Bitcoin and traditional digital fiat money- alternative democratic systems such as quadratic voting, quadratic funding and other Radical Market applications
