My name is Vishwa Naik. I've been a degen since 2016, when I made a chance investment into BTC thanks to a friend. I almost launched India's first crypto hedge fund before I got rugged on live TV by the regulator.

Following that experience, I joined Elemential Labs as employee number 1 and Head of BD. One of our early successes was partnering with the worlds second largest stock exchange by volume to conduct e-voting of a shareholder meeting live, making it the worlds first implementation.

After completing my Master in Entrepreneurship from Bayes Business School LDN, I launched a Haasyl. We partnered with large companies in India, including 4 listed companies to provide their workforce with access to their earned salary instantly. This was perhaps one of my proudest achievements, scaling more than $150,000 in GMV to a substantially underserved market in India. I was forced to exit the business due to exorbitant cost of capital and unfavourable regulation.

In 2022, I returned to a now booming crypto ecosystem with Sensho Services, a consulting and development firm that I co-founded with 2 others. To date, we have done in excess of $250k in ARR, with large clients in the art, culture and media space. We are the official web3 consultants to the Government of Qatar and even helped them launch a football NFT project during last years world cup.

After taking a sabbatical from Feb to June, I've come back with a renewed sense of purpose which I am channeling towards DEFI. I've been a part of alpha groups for more than 4 years. I am excited to build the next generation of tooling to support alpha groups capitalise on legitimate, ethical and consistent alpha, while protecting them from rugs.

Together, WAGMI. Find me on twitter @hrojantorse
