About

hey, i'm harper. i work on growth & product at lava.xyz. we're building infrastructure for self-custodial, bitcoin-secured loans. i'm also a ms computer science student at nyu.

previously, i ran opensats, a nonprofit that funds open source bitcoin development. before that i was an analyst at utxo mgmt.

in addition to bitcoin/crypto, topics you're likely to encounter on this blog are programming, movies, armchair philosophy, fishing, and maybe the occassional book review.

until now, i've never shared much of anything i've written. hmu if you stumble upon this and find anything interesting!
