Hi, I'm Sitesh
Stories keep me curious — the kind that live in obscure corners of the internet, in data that doesn't quite add up, in ideas that sound obvious until you pull the thread.
Most of my time goes into covering the Solana ecosystem: the people building it, the infrastructure holding it together, and the stranger parts most people scroll past. Four years in and the rabbit holes keep getting better.
I've worn many hats; researcher, editor, UX tinkerer, video producer—but they all orbit the same north star: make complex things feel obvious. When I'm not deep into the trenches, you'll find me cycling in the city and capturing sunsets.
