Senior Solidity Developer
I've been doing Solidity development for about 4 years. One of my first projects was a liquid staking protocol on the Astar blockchain (a Polkadot parachain). Right after launch, we hit ~$10M in TVL. The protocol maintained that TVL for about two years while Astar was still relevant.
My role focused on smart contracts for staking and building adapters so our liquid tokens could be used in partner apps. That meant integrating with DEXes like Uniswap V2, lending protocols like Aave, and others.
We later released v2, which used a simpler, more efficient reward-bearing liquid token (just like rETH). It also expanded to Soneium blockchain, and via Chainlink's CCIP, users could stake directly from Soneium into Astar. Algem still exists today, but low activity on Astar and Soneium has tanked its TVL and user base.
My most recent project was Mytho protocol, which about to launch on BNB Chain. It's a community platform where users create groups with custom tokenomics, post content, earn platform currency, and ultimately participate in $MYTHO token distributions.
For Mytho, I also integrated Chainlink VRF for random number generation in one of the mechanics. Plus, I built the entire frontend and backend myself—I'm not a frontend dev, but AI tools made it doable. The app integrates with The Graph, Supabase, IPFS (via Pinata), Redis, Upstash, and more.
Across both projects, I worked with 5 different audit firms. We identified and fixed all the potential logic issues they flagged.
On a personal note, I actively use and study protocols like Pendle, Morpho, Uniswap, Aave, GMX, Euler, Boros, and Hyperliquid.
