CrossFi

Cross Finance is a next-generation digital ecosystem of cutting-edge payment solutions, bridging the worlds of banking and blockchain. 

CrossFi seamlessly integrates these two pivotal segments of the global economy into a unified ecosystem, offering unparalleled scalability and processing speed of up to 1 million transactions per second through the core of the CrossFi Chain—a modular architecture based on Cosmos Tendermint. 

The Cross Finance foundation, rooted in Ethermint and Evmos, ensures interoperability between blockchains, transaction anonymity, and the integration of EVM-compatible DApps. The tandem operation of two native coins, MPX and XFI, fortifies CrossFi’s tokenomics foundation, providing users with a seamless and robust financial experience.

I have joined the CrossFi team as their Head of Blockchain Evangelism and Developer Relations and will be leading a $4M Developer Initiative which will include interactive code workshops led by myself and some of our partners, a hackathon with over $300K in token prizes ($XFI, $MPX), a Summer Internship Program, node validation AMAs, bug bounties, grants and more. 

At the moment our testnet is already live in all countries besides USA and Canada with live challenges with token incentives happening daily.

Openmesh is a petabyte-scale Open Data Initiative for crypto and Web3, allowing everyone to have access to quality immutable data for free, forever

Our mission is to address the information asymmetry in Web 3.0 by democratizing data

Openmesh Network is designed to collect, cryptographically store, process, and stream data for free to anyone from anywhere. It stores billions of the world’s crypto and Web 3.0 data points, transactions, and historical records allowing anyone to access data without having any intervention, interference, or influence over regulations, governments, and corporations, including the creators themselves

When a user is provisioning a node, it installs the core systems, low-level communications, and applications required to collect and process data onto the compute node and then adds the compute node to the cluster

The self-serve design allows users to reduce technical complexities making users able to focus on their individual data use cases 

This architecture allows greater autonomy and flexibility for end users and data owners, facilitating greater data experimentation and innovation

The current Openmesh Infrastructure is the world’s largest open data lake covering over 80% of crypto and Web 3.0 data.

Our Core Functionalities:

Live Web 3.0 data streaming service

End users can subscribe to live data feeds for free

Historical data-as-a-service

End users can use APIs or GraphQL to request historical transactions. i.e., All BTC/USD trade data on Coinbase between 10-10-19 to 01-02-20

Analytical & query service

Users can query, combine and run analytics on data via a web-based open analytical application. Users can create, test, visualize, and deploy custom data feeds and develop data products and gain insights at scale. i.e., Net inflow of USDT on Uniswap compared to Binance in the last 26 minutes

Our goal is to be able to plug the query engine directly into smart contracts to introduce on-chain analytics for a data driven Web3

Operations and Research

Open Data & Open Infrastructure Day 2023. In short OPEN D/I Day 2023. It will be a 3-day virtual conference and a 2 week hackathon that we plan to go live in Fall 2023.

The event's main goal is to bring together the brightest minds in the web3 and web2 space to bring awareness of the significance and urgencies around concentrated power over our data, and IT infrastructure. 

I'm sure some of you are aware of this. Today, a handful of companies like Google, Meta, Amazon, and Microsoft control over 90% of the world's data and Internet infrastructure, and we are expected to trust them. 

Data & information is the most valuable commodity in the world. Without quality, reliable data all webpages, mobile apps, and the entire internet will stop working.

The Information asymmetry has demonstrated social inequality, scandals, polarization, and corruption have even sometimes led to war. With an enormous amount of concentrated data and information, surveillance capitalism has come to shape politics and culture. 

Our vision is to democratize data and address information asymmetry at a scale.

We believe access to reliable unedited information is a fundamental right, an aspect of a free and democratic society, and the only way to scale crypto & web3. 

OpenD/I is an initiative designed to gather the brightest minds in the tech industry. Our goal is to build open data and infrastructure systems that will be pivotal in shaping the next 10-20 years.

Strategic DEX Partnerships Manager

Deeplink is an Ethereum-based deep-learning protocol that allows blockchains to maintain On-chain Neural Networks (ONN) while introducing programmability, machine learning, and data science into blockchains. Other Ethereum or EVM-compatible chains and protocols can use on-chain neural networks and ONN agents to improve efficiency, on-chain execution capabilities and security.

Deeplink wants to make blockchains smarter while maintaining decentralization and security. It will be the first of its kind, offering on-chain neural networks and dev-ops for many on-chain applications. With an SDK, developers can integrate powerful deep-learning tools on-chain into their smart contracts, providing the perks of deep learning without relying on centralized authority, and making their products smarter and safer. 

Currently we are focused on our current project, Eta X. Eta X is an open-source initiative to build an agnostic decentralized exchange (DEX) aggregator and price discovery engine/smart order router (SOR). It has been designed from first principles to be universal, scalable, and unbiased via an adaptable method of reverse engineering the conservation functions employed in the automated market maker (AMM) algorithms of DEX liquidity pools.
