Recent work (from GitHub)
- Drinking Trees (2026-09-10) — The home of a 4,444-piece NFT universe, with a page for every tree. Each tree gets its own profile with its traits and rarity, the collection roster stays in step with the artwork automatically, and an animated forest greets visitors on the way in. Built to reveal the collection in stages without ever showing an empty tile. https://drinkingtrees.art
- Token Launcher (2026-09-10) — Launch a token without getting sniped in the first block. On most chains a bot can buy between you adding liquidity and you opening trading. This kit does the liquidity, the opening and the team’s buys in one transaction, so there is no gap to jump into. Point it at any EVM chain and DEX, answer the wizard, launch.
- Intaglio (2026-09-03) — 4,444 engraved portraits, each drawn by a single field of ruled lines bending over a face. No eye is placed and no mouth is drawn. Lines cross the plate, ride over the head like contours, and thicken where the form turns away; the face is what they leave behind. Sold through a sealed mint where bids and traits stay hidden until the window closes, so there is nothing to snipe and nothing to front-run. https://intaglio.art
- Genzai (2026-08-27) — Prove you called it. Lock a prediction nobody can read, watch it open at midnight, get scored against the real price. Anyone can claim they saw the move coming. Genzai makes the claim provable: a call is sealed so that not even the server can read it, every call on the network opens at once at midnight, and each one is scored against the actual price. The result is a track record that cannot be edited and a sentiment index with the herding removed, built for people and for trading agents alike. https://www.genzai.market
- Anton (2026-08-27) — Websites die when someone stops paying for the server. Anton removes the server. The contract returns the interface, the browser enforces the composition, and the program pays for its own schedule. The demo site is served byte for byte out of a contract on Base Sepolia, and anything a gateway sends you can be checked against the chain instead of trusted. Every piece needed for this already existed; nobody had assembled them. https://anton-reader.vercel.app
- Landfall (2026-08-25) — Every residency and citizenship route out, ranked for who you are. There are several hundred legal routes to a second passport and almost nobody knows which apply to them. Enter your profile and Landfall marks every route open, one step away, or closed, with the exact reason and what fixing it would cost. It also finds the multi-hop plays a single-route tool misses, such as naturalising somewhere that shortens the wait everywhere else. https://landfall-psi.vercel.app
- Warden (2026-08-03) — A guardrail that lets an AI agent hold a wallet without ever being able to give itself permission. An agent that moves money reads untrusted text all day, and any of it can carry instructions. Warden makes that harmless: before a transfer can be signed, an independent check confirms the bytes match what the agent said it was doing and that the operator’s policy allows it. The model may propose anything. It can never approve anything. https://warden-theta-one.vercel.app
- 24 Hour Clipping (2026-07-31) — Post your footage, vetted clippers bid live, and a finished short-form clip comes back within 24 hours. Creators have hours of raw footage and no time to cut it. Post it, watch clippers bid in real time, accept one, and get a ready-to-post TikTok, Reel or Short back the same day. The clipper stakes a deadline bond, so a late delivery means a full refund plus the bond. Pay by card or crypto; clippers cash out however they like. https://24hourclipping.com
- Rivals (2026-07-16) — Hold one token and every World Cup, UFC and NBA match streams in your browser. Bet on it against other holders. A token instead of a cable subscription. Holding it unlocks live sport in-page; each match also has a pool where holders back an outcome, winners split the pot, and five percent of the losing side is burned forever. Results sit in a two-hour public review window before they go final, so a bad call can be corrected but never quietly. https://rivalseth.com
- SocialKnocks (2026-07-14) — One place for an agency to run social: scheduling, Meta ads, leads, storefronts and AI-written content. Schedule and publish across channels, run ad campaigns, capture leads, build storefronts and digital cards, and generate the posts with AI, all inside team workspaces. Live for paying customers at socialknocks.com.
- Novapex (2026-07-09) — Launch a token in one click and let it trade immediately. No presale, no team bag, no liquidity to raise. Price follows a bonding curve from the first buy; when the curve fills, the coin graduates into a locked Uniswap pool on its own. Comes with a board, live charts, a comment thread on every coin, and a kit so bots and agents can launch coins too. https://www.novapex.fun
- Reckon (2026-06-29) — A prediction market built for AI agents instead of people. Agents create markets, trade them, and play each other at poker entirely through code, never a screen. Outcomes are decided by the Halo oracle and value only touches the chain at deposit, settlement and withdrawal.
- Halo (2026-06-24) — An oracle that decides what actually happened, and a prediction market settled by it. Every prediction market needs someone to say how a question resolved. Halo answers by consensus: five independent AI models plus live web research agree on an outcome with a confidence score, written on-chain in under a minute with the reasoning attached. On top of it sits a market where anyone can create and trade a question and let the oracle settle it. https://halomarkets.vercel.app
- Mycelium (2026-06-12) — A token that behaves like a fungal network: bond into colonies and share the stream, or get decomposed. Holders who bond together share a boosted ETH stream; idle, unbonded supply is slowly decomposed and recycled to the living network. Every colony that fruits mints an artwork generated on-chain from the network’s own state. https://mycelium-seven.vercel.app
- Tokenized RWA Fund (2026-05-11) — A working blueprint for putting a hedge fund on-chain. Investors send stablecoin, receive tokens, and the token’s price tracks the fund’s NAV. Comes with the contracts, a demo app, and a guided two-minute tour anyone can run without a wallet. https://tokenized-rwa-fund.vercel.app
- Roster (2025-09-18) — Every hire, in one list. A recruitment platform covering sourcing, screening, pipelines, outreach, interview scheduling and reporting, with plain-English candidate search and AI CV parsing. Built for a talent-acquisition client.
Bots and agents
- FOMO Bot — Finds Solana memecoin runners before the paid terminals do, on nothing but free public data. A Telegram bot and a public JSON API. Every scan pulls candidates from trending, new pools, pump.fun graduations and the wallets you track, then scores each token from 0 to 100 on momentum, buy pressure, turnover, freshness, smart money and rug risk. Track a wallet and its buys land in your chat live; when two tracked wallets buy the same coin inside half an hour, that is a Smart Money alert. No paid API, no keys, no credits, rate-limited under every provider’s published ceiling. Being rebuilt right now.
- Polybot — Scalps five-minute Bitcoin markets on Polymarket off the gap between Binance and the order book. Binance moves first; Polymarket’s book catches up seconds later. Polybot watches both over WebSocket, evaluates every 50 milliseconds, and enters only when the move is real and still accelerating. Take-profit, stop-loss, a reversal exit, a forced exit before resolution and a session kill switch keep a bad day small. Fifty-plus live trades: 65 percent win rate, positive expectancy after fees.
- MintForge — Finds free NFT mints across five chains, proves they are not a trap, and mints inside a hard budget. Reads mint events straight off the chain instead of waiting for an indexer, simulates a real holder selling before you ever mint so a honeypot never takes your gas, prices every mint in dollars against a cap, and keeps cost basis and realised profit per token. One CLI and a local dashboard for Ethereum, Base, Ink, Arc and Robinhood Chain.
- Warden treasury agent — A self-hosted Solana agent that runs payroll and cannot be talked into anything else. The agent side of Warden: a payout workflow that builds a transfer, certifies it against policy inside a sandbox with no network access, and hands it to a human to sign, plus a morning treasury brief on a schedule. An instruction hidden in a memo, a token name or a chat message is checked against the same policy and refused.
