About

I am CTPO and co-founder at Gateway.fm, where we build infrastructure for institutions moving finance onchain.

My work sits at the intersection of Ethereum infrastructure, security, privacy, and regulated financial systems. These days I am focused on:

Earlier §

Before Gateway.fm I worked with teams and projects including Ethereum Foundation / Erigon, Status, StarkWare, and Opera Software.

My Stateless Ethereum research (ReGenesis, binary tries, witnesses) was done as part of Ethereum Foundation research. At Erigon I was one of the founding engineers; I don't work on it now.

Earlier mobile and platform work included browser, mobile runtime, and energy-efficiency engineering.

Between the Ethereum chapter and Gateway, I ran 0xFF Consulting — an independent security consulting practice based in Sweden, helping companies that didn't have a budget or need for a full-time security lead protect data, IP and money. That practice is closed; its site is preserved as an archive entry.

Hobby tools and personal experiments §

Separate from my Ethereum and Gateway work, I still build small tools for myself, usually with a strong bias toward local-first behavior, privacy, and deliberately constrained product design — LE FLAC, RFF, and Interfast. They live in Projects.

What I care about §

This site §

Personal, non-corporate, and built to last: static HTML, no JavaScript, no tracking. Longer reasoning behind it is in the archive philosophy page. The source is on GitHub.
