Kushagra Agarwal

I'm a learner always looking to enhance my skills and making a change by contributing.
I'm always eager to learn new things and I'm always looking for new challenges and problem-solving opportunities.
I recently worked on a decentralized exchange for Nvest global and currently trying to add AI and algorithmic trading to it for a personalized trading bot.
Working on this I got introduced to the world of blockchain and have developed an interest in this field. I worked with people excelling in different profiles and learned a lot about finances, economics, and markets from the domain specialists working on the trading bot. This helped me grow a lot as now I'm working with interoperable domains of technology and economics to create better products and bring more value to users.

I recently entered the ETHindia2.0 hackathon with team DAIDEX and bagged the sponsored prize by Kyber Network there.
The thought of meeting like-minded people who are proficient in the domain thrills me and would show me how much there is to learn and what next steps should be taken by me. I'm currently working on a startup idea in the blockchain domain so I feel that this hackathon can be a huge opportunity to network with people and show how I can be helpful for them. Furthermore, I want to learn and grow so that I can contribute to the blockchain domain and also work towards a decentralised future.
