Hello, friend 👋! My name is Manav. I work as a Blockchain Engineer at Polygon (Previously Matic Network) 🚀.
I've been into the blockchain domain since quite a long time and I find it really interesting, technically challenging, and fun to work and innovate. Devfolio has been of immense help to me to grow in this journey with it's hackathons and Ethereum India Fellowship of which I was a part of in Jan'2022. I still love taking part in hackathons and building/learning new things for public good.
I am currently having a great time working with the core protocol team at Polygon (thankful to the fellowship) and am involved in R&D tasks for the PoS chain. Moreover, I am also involved in exploring some research projects cross-team. I am also part of the recent cohort of the ethereum protocol fellowship where I am working on Proposer builder separation with Prysm team.
I also have inclination towards research, which led me to give a talk on Casper (Ethereum 2.0's consensus mechanism) at Web3 Conference, Goa 2022 and on Verkle trees in 2023.
