Co-founded and operated a large DeFi and NFT ecosystem, owning protocol direction, economics, and execution. Acted as the primary decision-maker for product scope, economic design, and system trade-offs. Designed full protocol-level economic models including token supply, emissions, incentives, and sinks. Led the design and launch of NFT and token lending protocols processing nine-figure cumulative volume. Defined interest rate curves, collateral frameworks, liquidation logic, and risk parameters. Designed game and incentive mechanics to drive user behaviour, liquidity formation, and retention. Worked directly with developers to convert economic specifications into smart-contract implementations. Iterated protocols post-launch based on live usage, liquidity behaviour, and adversarial incentives. Managed protocol finances, runway planning, and long-term sustainability considerations. Expanded protocol development to additional chains, adapting models to new ecosystems.
