Chapter 1 · About

Through the window

I build things at the seam where decentralized systems meet markets: smart contracts by day, statistical models by night.

Most of what I know came from reading slowly, shipping small, and writing down what broke. This site is that notebook, left open.

Right now I am deepening my grasp of market microstructure and turning it into tools I can actually trade and audit with.

Chapter 2 · Current Focus

Current notes

Order-flow research

Replaying limit order book data to see how spread and depth react before big moves.

Solidity, but safer

Writing invariant tests and fuzzing every contract before it ever touches testnet.

A slower morning

Two hours of reading and notes before any screen with a chart on it.

On reading order books like weather

This week I stopped treating the order book as a list of prices and started treating it as weather: pressure builds on one side, thins out on the other, and the move is the release. I do not predict it yet, but I can finally describe it, and that already changes how I test ideas.

describe first, predict later
