Session #2 of Enterprise on Ethereum Live is just around the corner!
We're bringing together leaders from @hackenclub@gateway_eth@edgeandnode/ @graphprotocol who are working directly with institutions across security, data, and infrastructure to talk about what "enterprise-ready" means in practice.
🔔 Tuesday, April 28th. 12pm ET.
Huge respect for digging this up out of pure curiosity and putting it out to the public with receipts. Ukraine will win, and real transparency in crypto will win too. The silence from the rest of the industry speaks volumes.
As promised — the thread on @sumsub connections to Kremlin's military and intelligence infrastructure.
I found that Sumsub's core document AI is built by a company that works for the FSB, builds tank recognition systems for the Russian military, and holds drone surveillance patents.

Where Web3 security breaks right now isn’t always where teams are looking.
We’re hosting a live panel on how risk actually shows up in practice: across infra, detection, and compliance - based on Q1 '26 data.

I will be attending the World Economic Forum in Davos from January 19–23 together with Hacken.
The global conversation around digital assets, cybersecurity, and emerging technologies is increasingly shaped by regulation and compliance. As governments and regulators accelerate their efforts, the industry faces a critical moment: aligning innovation with robust regulatory frameworks, risk management, and trust.
I am particularly interested in connecting with:
•Regulators and policymakers shaping digital asset and cybersecurity frameworks
•Enterprises navigating compliance, governance, and operational risk
•Web3 and fintech leaders preparing for the next phase of regulatory maturity
If you will be in Davos and would like to discuss regulatory strategy, compliance challenges, or secure market expansion, I would be glad to meet.
Feel free to reach out directly to schedule a conversation.

Chief Growth Officer | General Partner MENA
Grateful for a wonderful time in St. Moritz and for the exceptional quality of people we had the pleasure to meet. The conversations around CFC and Trust were thoughtful, practical, and timely—exactly what was needed. A great way to align perspectives and energy ahead of the intensive week leading into WEF 26. Great to have seen all the old friends and to have made so many new friends.
Powerful moments today with the UAE Cyber Security Council.
Proud to see Hacken actively contributing to the UAE’s cybersecurity vision and honored to exchange insights with
H.E. Dr. Mohammed Al Kuwaiti — a true leader shaping the future of digital trust.
The UAE is setting global standards, and we’re committed to supporting this mission every step of the way.
