I entered the crypto industry in January 2018 — at the very peak of market euphoria, when cryptocurrency was the talk of the town. My first experience was an expensive lesson: I bought XRP on a tip from a random Facebook acquaintance, entering the market at virtually its all-time high. That crash drove many of my peers away from crypto for good. But for me, the loss became a turning point — not as a speculator, but as a builder.
Experience & Background
With a technical background in software engineering, I combine development expertise with deep market understanding. Back in 2018, the news of Pavel Durov's ambitious blockchain project — TON — convinced me of the Telegram ecosystem's potential. I began building on the TON blockchain, and over 8+ years in the industry, I have navigated multiple market cycles while creating products used by thousands of people.
Projects
Telochain — Telegram Blockchain
A centralized blockchain built as a Telegram Mini App. Users could mine tokens using their CPU and earn NFT planets — laying the economic foundation for the Telomeme project. Forgoing complex consensus in favor of user experience and economic design while building the system from scratch gave me a fundamental understanding of blockchain architecture.
Telomeme — GameFi / SocialFi
A collective GameFi/SocialFi strategy with fully-fledged tokenomics: its own central bank, commercial banks, and an economy built on tokens mined by early participants in Telochain. Building Telomeme required deep expertise in token economics, game mechanics, and financial system design.
