Gleb first looked into the Bitcoin protocol four years ago with a pure academic interest, but became politically motivated since then.

Anyway, cypherpunks write code, and Gleb attempts to make Bitcoin Core, the Lightning Network, and other fuck-you-software operate in a more secure  way.

Lately, Gleb tries to stay in touch with Bitcoin businesses, because “that’s where real utility and adoption often comes from”.

His most known open source contributions are Erlay, Coinpool, and Channel Jamming Research.
