Selected work

Four projects
01

AI prediction engine

AI

Together with the original Scaleflake core team, built an AI prediction engine using Polymarket and Kalshi data, with support from Jarosław Królewski (Synerise), and grew it to $250K ARR in six months.

02

Stablewatch.io

Stablecoins

As part of the early founding team, helped establish strategic partnerships with Sky.money and Plasma.org and launch Stablewatch.io, a leading stablecoin analytics platform and Osero Sky Agent operator. Left early alongside the core team after the company shifted away from its original focus.

03

Scaleflake & World.org

Identity

Co-founded Scaleflake while still living in a university dorm. Served as the main operator for World.org, Sam Altman’s (OpenAI) biometric identity and payment project, in Europe, achieving the strongest performance metrics globally: 100K+ users, 40+ locations, and 80+ employees. Designed and built the first World ID miniapps, which later became core World App features.

04Ethereum

Joined as employee #3 and helped establish L2BEAT.com as a leading L2 analytics platform, working closely with Ethereum co-founder Vitalik Buterin and the Arbitrum, Optimism, Starknet, Polygon, and ZKsync teams. Helped BlackRock and Grayscale expand into tokenized asset offerings. Built and co-led the core offering that monetized our open-source engine, generating over $5M.
