Make it
make sense.
I write about crypto.
And build things that help explain it.
Former Head of Ecosystem at MegaETH.
Still curious. Still making things.
01 Writing + illustration
A number is
a headline.
Then what?
“10ms blocks” sounds fast. But what is a mini-block? What does it contain? How does it work with the tools developers already use?
I wrote and illustrated the 10ms ENDGAME article to draw those relationships out.

02 Interactive explanation
Give the number
a familiar shape.
I made How Many Polymarkets? to give blockchain throughput a familiar unit: a Polymarket-sized app.
Pick a chain. Watch the comparison change. Part explanation, part toy.
Try the interactiveIllustrative capacity framing, not a claim about real-world app throughput.
03 Draft specification
From a request
to a payment.
I coauthored the EVM Charge draft with Conner Swenberg and Kyle Scott: one-time ERC-20 payments through HTTP payment authentication.
A shared format for a very practical interaction.

Work in progress, not a final standard.
04 Onchain application
Something
you can name.
My work on MegaNames and the .mega marketplace: a naming application on MegaETH, built on z0r0z’s wei-names foundation.
A readable name is a small thing that changes how a system feels to use.

05 Team tooling
Useful behind
the scenes, too.
I built MegaInternBot, a testnet faucet bot for team requests. It used a scoped MOSS vault, approved requesters and per-asset limits for ETH, USDM and MEGA.
Less back-and-forth. A clear boundary around what a tool could do.

Words. Tools.
Things out in the world.
A quick route to the work, if you’d rather skip the scenic one.

A little context
Brett in person.
Bread online.
I’ve been involved in crypto since 2017. At MegaETH, I was Head of Community and later Head of Ecosystem.
Before and alongside crypto, I spent more than a decade building and integrating healthcare systems, including Epic integrations. Different systems, very real consequences when the pieces don’t fit.
