@archidog0, Born HONGBO WEN, grew up in China. He's now in his late 20s. He's that kid that loved solving puzzles and messing with gadgets. He studied Architecture at @Tsinghua_Uni when he left High school. That's where he obtained his Bachelor's Degree! However, he pretty soon realized tech was where his heart really was. Upon graduation, he shifted to Computer Science when joined @ucsantabarbara for Ph.D. There, he worked with Professor Yu Feng, @captain8299 who happens to be his teacher and a mentor, and thatās where he dove deep into blockchain and security. It's important to note that he's on leave to focus fully on @nubit_org just like @trackoor.

Before @ucsantabarbara, Hongbo got some real-life work experience. He spent time at @Megvii where he did some AI Stuff. He was also @VeridiseInc along @captain8299 and @trackoor. Those jobs helped him apply academic research to real-world problems few things that preped him for launching @nubit_org. As a researcher, he focused on blockchain security, especially smart contracts and ZK proofs. Basically, he finds bugs before hackers can, and makes sure blockchain tech stays safe and solid. In addition, one of his biggest wins is a paper called ZKAP, which he presented at @USENIXSecurity in 2024. Itās all about finding bug patterns in ZK circuits. Basically, the kind of shii that makes blockchain safer for everyone. š
