About me

I'm Pranay, a programmer and a believer of decentralised permissionless networks. I'm a Bachelor of Technology graduate in Electronics from JNT university, India. My main fields of interest are Ethereum and it's ecosystem. I love to learn and write about ethereum and I often post at the r/ethtrader DAO on Reddit. I'm currently working on my solidity skills and frontend to build more useful Dapps on the ethereum protocol.

About this blog site

Most of my write ups are on the r/ethtrader DAO. Initially I thought that given I was starting out and I had no fame in the Web3 community, it's better to post all the stuff I wanted to on social platforms where most users might notice what I write and in turn learn something too. But given my interest in web3, it didn't feel right to post blogs on centralised platforms with paywalls and hoards of advertisement trackers.

Then I discovered the concept of DAO and found out ethtrader was a DAO built on the reddit platform. I felt it was a right balance. So most of my blogs are posted over there. This blog website is just a landing page I can share to people who aren't interested in Reddit. For all of my posts, head over to my profile on ethtrader DAO.

Why I write

I'm mainly a programmer. I'm blown away by the paradigm shift the ethereum protocol introduced to me and the world. So I decided to learn solidity and build Dapps on the ethereum protocol. But I found out that given all the protocol documentation and even guides for developers, there aren't many guides that really explain the ethereum protocol to the average ETH investor.

So I decided that given I'm learning from the ground up, I can write what I learnt so that the average investor from all walks of life can understand the protocol better. I believe they can make better decisions and help others understand ethereum through my posts.
