I'm a developer based in India, currently going deep on blockchain technology. I believe the next era of the internet is being written in Solidity and Rust, and I want to be one of the people writing it.
Right now I'm in the learning phase — studying smart contract architecture, EVM internals, token standards, and DeFi protocols. No big deployments yet, but every line of code gets me closer.
I'm hungry, consistent, and building in public. The chain is being assembled. 🔗

Currently building my first projects — these are queued up in the mempool 👇
| # | Project | Status | Stack |
|---|---|---|---|
| 0001 | SimpleToken ERC-20 — bare-bones token with mint/burn/transfer, learning OpenZeppelin & gas optimization | 🔨 Building | Solidity ERC-20 Hardhat Sepolia |
| 0002 | On-Chain Voting dApp — transparent, tamper-proof governance with a React frontend | 📋 Planning | Solidity React Ethers.js MetaMask |
| 0003 | NFT Minting Contract — ERC-721 collection with on-chain metadata & whitelist minting | ⏳ Queued | ERC-721 IPFS OpenZeppelin |
| 0004 | Mini DeFi Vault — yield-bearing vault, Yearn-style architecture stripped to core logic | ⏳ Queued | DeFi Solidity Foundry |
| 0005 | DAO Governance Framework — token-weighted voting & proposal execution | ⏳ Queued | DAO Governance ERC-20 |
| 0006 | Cross-Chain Bridge Study — research on lock-and-mint mechanisms & security tradeoffs | ⏳ Queued | Layer 2 Bridges Research |
- ✅ Phase 01 — The Foundation: JavaScript, TypeScript, programming fundamentals, async patterns, HTTP.
- ✅ Phase 02 — Blockchain Theory: Consensus (PoW/PoS), the EVM, gas, wallets, cryptography, Merkle trees.
- 🟢 Phase 03 — Solidity & Smart Contracts (active now): Writing/testing contracts, deploying to Sepolia, security patterns (reentrancy, overflow guards), gas optimization.
- ⏭️ Phase 04 — Full-Stack dApp Development: Contracts + React + Ethers.js + MetaMask, deploying to mainnet forks and public networks.
- 🔜 Phase 05 — DeFi & Protocol Engineering: AMMs, lending protocols, yield vaults, cross-chain infra, OSS contributions, audits.
- 🎯 Phase 06 — The Goal: Full-time blockchain engineer building infrastructure that thousands of users interact with.
I'm open to learning opportunities, collaborations, internships, or just connecting with fellow builders in the Web3 space.
