Hi, I'm Vlad 👋🏻 👨🏼‍💻

I’m a Software Engineer who’s worked on various cool B2B products. Previously, I contributed to startups like Shypple and Tablecheck.

Currenly developing:

• OpenCryptoList.xyz – to help new developers interested in the blockchain industry make their first contributions to blockchain-related projects.
• solvitor.xyz – to get IDL info from closed-source Solana programs (an AI-based reverse engineering tool)
• ShareSpeak.co – an AI-powered invisible teleprompter made for screencasters.
• IndexMachine.co – to get your website indexed by Google, Bing, ChatGPT, Perplexity, and other search engines. Drive more SEO traffic.
• AffyList.com – a directory that helps the internet learn about your affiliate program.
• Submitator.com – to submit a website to directories in one click

Some technologies I enjoy working with include Ruby/Rails, Golang, and Rust (of course, this list could be infinite). I’m a big fan of open-source software and always open to ideas and offers in that space. My libraries have been downloaded over 260k times, and I’m proud of that (though I suspect many of those downloads were from bots and crawlers).

My OSS work revolves around building utility-focused libraries and tools:

• 🔓pkcs12cracker – A simple tool to concurrently attack password-protected PKCS#12 (PFX/P12) files
• 💬telegrama-rs – Send admin notifications as Telegram messages (shoutout to @rameerez)
• 🇬🇧⚙️english-to-cron – Converts natural language into cron expressions
• 📊finance_rb – A ruby port of numpy-financial functions
• 🟣🔎solscan-mcp – An MCP server for querying Solana transactions using natural language with Solscan API
• 🖼️🔓visual-cryptography – An experimental repository with implementations of all basic visual cryptography schemes
