Zaki Manian wears a lot of hats in Blockspace. I am currently co-founder of iqlusion. We are working on Armistice, an open source hardware security solution. Iqlusion advises and supports a number of blockchain projects and you may see my name on their websites for this work. I am an advisor to the Electric Coin Company.
I went to the University of Pennsylvania and graduated in 2005. I studied history of science. I taught myself software engineering, programming and computer science after college. From 2008 to 2013 I was Technical Lead for Scientific Instrumentation Products at ReaMetrix. I founded an enterprise blockchain company called Skuchain in 2014 and started teaching myself cryptography. I started contributing more to projects like Bitcoin, Zcash, Tendermint, Ethereum, etc. I got interested in strange ideas like scalable public blockchains.
In 2017 I co-founded the Trusted IoT Alliance and iqlusion. I also started contributing more to Cosmos. I helped build the first validator dashboard and then Figment executed the idea. I helped launch the first Cosmos public testnets. I spent a lot of time in 2018 working part-time at All In Bits, building the validator ecosystem and figuring out how the quality assurance is actually done to enable the launch of Cosmos. In 2019, after launching the hub, I joined All in Bits as Director of Research. Where I worked to achieve the Cosmos design goals by completing IBC.
After All In Bits proved too unstable to complete the work, I quit in February 2019 and am completing the IBC work with the community of contributors from Agoric, Interchain Berlin and Informal.
