CYS Student

Systems break. I ask why.

What started off with memory dumps, CTF flags, and binaries that refused to behave. Curiosity led the way — now I’m down the Web3 rabbit hole — exploring Ethereum, messing with the EVM, and picking apart smart contracts one bug at a time.

Lately, it’s all about zk. Circuits, constraints, provers, verifiers that say everything — while revealing nothing. This is where I dump that chaos. It's part rant zone — breaking down things as I learn them, tracing weird behavior, and sharing the process without pretending to know it all.

Not an expert. Just thinking in public. If you’re into the gritty bits of Web3, zk, or breaking logic open — welcome to the mess.

Remember: Even zero knowledge speaks volumes.
