I'm building secure computing tools for a future free from trusted third parties. I focus on peer-to-peer networks, economic incentives, and information theory. I've been building things with Bitcoin since 2011, and now I run Fabric Labs as an open-source research lab for building secure distributed systems.

Primary Project: Fabric, the serverless web
Fabric is a compute layer for Bitcoin which implements secure multi-party computation as part of a "computation market", whereby peers are able to claim payments offered up in exchange for performing compute tasks.

Fabric has several core components:

  • @fabric/core, for building distributed applications which run on Fabric
  • @fabric/http, for serving a Fabric application to the legacy web

Funds go towards helping keep my work non-commercial, allowing me to remain focused on the academic and engineering aspects of such a wide-reaching project.
