Slashy
Founder & Solo Developer — Protocol 01
24 years old, based in Paris. Epitech alumni with a Master's in Cybersecurity and 7+ years of coding experience. I built Protocol 01 alone in 90 days, 14 Solana programs, 10 ZK circuits, 6 STARKs, 3 client apps, and 17 SDKs. No team, no funding, just execution.
Why I Build This
I believe financial privacy is a fundamental right, not a feature. Every blockchain transaction today creates a permanent trail, your salary, subscriptions, donations, everything is public. That's not transparency, that's surveillance.
Protocol 01 exists to fix this. Not with trust-based privacy (mixers, relayers that see your data) but with cryptographic guarantees, zero-knowledge proofs, stealth addresses, and post-quantum resistance. Privacy that doesn't depend on anyone keeping their promise.
My goal is not to build a product, it's to build an ecosystem. Mobile app, browser extension, developer SDKs. Every layer covered. One person, zero compromises.
From Curiosity to Protocol
First Computer
Fascinated by computers since age 6. Started exploring how things work under the hood.
Started Coding
Self-taught developer at 17. Fell in love with building things from scratch.
E-Commerce
First professional experience building e-commerce platforms. Learned the business side of tech.
Bachelor's — Full-Stack Dev
Epitech Paris. Graduated as a Full-Stack Developer. Built 18+ projects across web, mobile, and backend.
CaptNBoat — Dev & PM
Full-stack developer and project manager. Led cybersecurity initiatives and product development for 2 years.
Master's — Cybersecurity
Epitech Paris. Specialized in offensive security, cryptography, and secure architecture.
Freelance & Hackathons
Went independent. Started competing in Solana hackathons. Built the first version of Protocol 01.
Protocol 01 — Full Time
Continuous solo development since January 2026. 14 programs, 10 ZK circuits, 6 STARKs, 9 MPC circuits, 3 apps, 17 SDKs. Submitted to Colosseum Frontier 2026.
