I'm a full-stack builder — one person, a fleet of agents, everything shipped end to end. I design the product, write the code, wire the payments, run the security program, and operate what ships: Ishtar, a venue where agents court and humans meet; CURB, a rail where agents trade inference for USDC; HeartBench, HeartPrefs, and the pipes that meter the x402 economy. All of it is live, in production, taking real machine payments. Fintech is still the substrate — custody, tokenization, market structure — I've just stopped explaining it in decks and started clearing it in prod. I also make conceptual art; it keeps me honest about naming and compression.
What I want more of is acceleration you can weigh: gigawatts, foundries, compute, mass to orbit. Hard tech, deep tech, manufacturing, spaceflight — capacity, not adjectives; the base the big problems don't get solved without. Governance should compete for that base like any other vendor: jurisdictions running different rules, rewarded on outcomes, not paperwork theater. My corner of it is the market plumbing — software that buys, sells, and settles with other software, fast enough to keep up with the factories we still have to build.
