Daniel Daniel

Welcome!

Hello, my name is Daniel, a software engineer and hardware hacker. For the past 5 years, I've been focused on the intersection between crypto and hardware, mainly on the DePIN space, AI, and Robotics.

I'm the co-founder of Hotspotty and DePIN Hub.
This is my corner of the internet, where I share my thoughts, projects, and ideas.
