Founder

Daan

I am an enthusiastic Dutch computer science student at the University of Amsterdam, now in my 3rd year. I'm very passionate about cryptography, web development, computer graphics and machine learning.


I started running my own validator node for Radix because I've been following the project for over three years, and I really wanted to get involved. Not only that, but I also think it's fun to maintain the node, and it's a great opportunity to learn even more about the Radix protocol and Linux system administration in general. To make these efforts maintainable and build a fitting brand around the node, I founded Leaf Node.


Next to my studies and running the node, I am a developer in the Ociswap core team, which is responsible for the development of Ociswap, one of the biggest DEXes on Radix with millions of total value locked.
