I build blockchain, DeFi, and tokenization infrastructure that unifies regulatory compliance, banking rails, and — increasingly — autonomous AI agents into systems built for real-world, mass-market adoption.
Layer-1 architecture, DeFi protocols, and stablecoin rails only matter if they can settle against real banking infrastructure — most implementations stop at the whitepaper.
Tokenization and DeFi products that aren't designed with central banks and regulators at the table get built twice — once to ship, once to survive review.
Financial inclusion across Southeast Asia is a distribution and compliance problem before it's a technology problem — the architecture has to work for people without a credit history.
Autonomous agents are already transacting on-chain. Infrastructure that doesn't account for verifiable identity, compliance, and policy-bound execution today is already behind.
Five disciplines, one operating principle: infrastructure has to survive contact with regulators, banks, and real users — not just a testnet demo.
Designing and shipping secure, scalable blockchain infrastructure — consensus, tokenomics, and EVM compatibility built for institutional throughput, not testnet demos.
I currently serve as CTO & Chief Blockchain Officer at MAALChain, where I lead the design and execution of a Layer-1 blockchain, DeFi ecosystem, and tokenization initiatives — including regulatory-facing use cases presented to central banking authorities.
In parallel, I am architecting a crypto-funded debit card and DeFi banking platform built on MAALChain, integrating traditional banking APIs and 11+ BINs to make digital finance accessible to underbanked and unbanked populations across Southeast Asia.
My work sits at the intersection of blockchain & DeFi, payments and banking infrastructure, regulatory-aligned innovation, and scalable technology.
I build systems that are technically robust, compliance-aware, scalable across markets, and designed for mass adoption.
I collaborate closely with founders, boards, regulators, and financial institutions to translate complex technology into practical, investable, and deployable platforms.
