What I'm doing now

• Time Capsule Protocol: Shipped the trustless time-lock demo with a cleaner unlock flow and added a “future message” preset for quick trials.
• ScholrLink: Rolled out Blink-based one-tap funding; soulbound patron badges now show directly in the profile view.
• Reading: Working through “Designing Data-Intensive Applications” to rethink how I index off-chain metadata.

• On-Chain Chaos: Prototyped validator-side metrics to watch compute spikes on Solana programs before they hit mainnet.
• RustyTasks: Added fuzzy search and batched sync to stop flooding Mongo on every keystroke.

• ScholrLink: Implemented rate limits and better error surfacing for failed Blink actions; added a lean Next.js edge cache.
• DedCore: Tuned hashing to skip tiny files and prioritize big wins; shaved another ~8% off runtime on my sample set.
• Learning: Revisiting Solana runtime internals, focusing on how PoH batches interact with program scheduling.

• Time Capsule Protocol: Added CLI tooling to create/reveal capsules locally before pushing on-chain.
• Cube Solver: Minor UI cleanup and keyboard shortcuts for scrambling and stepping through solutions.
• Writing: Drafted notes on “trustless time as a UX primitive” for a future blog post.

• Solana Smart Contracts: Building a token swap DApp on Solana using Anchor framework. Currently implementing the swap functionality and writing tests in TypeScript.
• Rust Optimization: Refactoring Solana programs to reduce compute units by ~15% through better memory management and instruction optimization.
• Python Backend: Developing a FastAPI service for NFT metadata processing that handles 1000+ RPS with Redis caching.
• Security Research: Writing a script to audit token permissions in browser localStorage for common vulnerabilities.
• Learning: Deep diving into Solana's Proof of History consensus and its security implications.

• Solana Bootcamp: Completed 3 Solana development tutorials, building basic programs like a token minter and staking contract.
• Python Automation: Created a Discord bot that monitors Solana wallets and sends alerts for large transactions.
• Security Tools: Built a Python CLI tool that scans for exposed API keys in browser storage and checks them against public databases.
• Blog Post: Published "How Safe is Accessing Discord through Chrome?" analyzing token storage security.
• Project Setup: Configured a local Solana validator node for development and testing smart contracts.

• Learning Rust programming: Focusing on control flow, HTTP servers, file organization, JSON serialization, data structures, crate selection, and unit testing.
• Developing DEDCORE: Working on a smart file deduplication tool with advanced features.
• Version control: Using Git for version control and collaborating on open source projects via CLI.
