been working with the btcd/btcwallet codebase since 2018 ( https://github.com/p9c/p9 ), and most recently developing the indra network protocol ( https://github.com/indra-labs/indra ).

i am very experienced with elliptic curves, hash functions, forward error correction, network handlers, scheduling, difficulty adjustment, deterministic execution, concurrency, CLI interfaces, gRPC/Protobuf, libp2p, IPv4 multicast over UDP, binary and ASCII encoding systems.

currently working on a nostr signing CLI/library ( https://github.com/mleku/signr ) which included taking the btcd/btcec elliptic curve package and consolidating the stuff they use from decred (btcd has decred code included in it, for schnorr signatures!) in https://github.com/mleku/ec which anyone can use to avoid pulling down the whole btcd codebase and importing decred's elliptic curve package.

willing to work with Rust codebases but more likely to make a persuasive argument that you should not use Rust because rust is spook funded mozilla trash, and the Go libraries needed are far more mature and battle tested.
