Lead Developer
Silur began his career as a pentester and hacker at a young age, with a strong affinity for cryptography and higher mathematics.
With deep knowledge of cryptocurrencies before the 2016 boom, he became an early industry specialist, working with the Ethereum Foundation until 2018.
In 2019, he designed a cipher for the NIST Lightweight Encryption Standard competition and later proved his expertise in blockchain architecture as a co-founder of QANPlatform and an early partner of CasperLabs.
Having developed dozens of dApps, protocols, and full blockchains for both mass-market and government clients, Silur also co-organizes the world's largest Capture the Flag event, challenging top hackers to break blockchain systems and replicate historical crypto hacks.
He is a member of Wigner’s Research Centre for Physics, specializing in quantum computation and post-quantum cryptography, while also contributing to the AI Working Group in the European Parliament.
Recognized for his achievements in cybersecurity and Web3, Silur was named to the Forbes 30 Under 30 list.
