About

I write about Bitcoin, cryptography, and trail running.

Professionally, I work on privacy at Chainlink. Going back in time in reverse chronological order, I did some investment research at L1D. Before my foray into venture capital, I was a Ph.D student at ETH-Zürich, working on Bitcoin and friends. Even before that, I was an engineer at Google Zürich – working on anti-spam, anti-hijacking, and automated web-browsing. Even earlier, I co-founded/worked-in anti-spam/analytics/web-search startups in Palo Alto, New York City, and Bangalore. Eons ago, I worked at Yahoo! and ThoughtWorks (both are still around!)
