Hi 👋, I'm Roman Ch, originally from Lithuania 🇱🇹, I've been living in Cyprus 🇨🇾 with my wife and our newborn daughter 👨‍👩‍👧 for the past five years. For most of my professional career, I worked for startups and inherently did many things. Either independently, as part of a team, or leading one. I always aim for the 80/20 rule, but often go beyond, driven by a belief that passion is what truly stands out.

A techno-optimist and a lean startup principles enthusiast, with a strong background in traditional fintech(FX, Stocks, Derivatives, Structured Products), a CySEC Advanced License under my belt, and CFA Institute classes participation, I'm deeply fascinated by DeFi and horizons it's opening as a new frontier of finance. I had the privilege of being involved as an Early Adopter/Beta Tester for several major projects, including Zerion, Phantom, Rainbow Wallet, Rabby, Orca, Jupiter, and Aerodrome.

My strong spot is crafting partnerships that create genuine value. I've built and closed deals from revenue shares and liquidity partnerships to protocol integrations - always focusing on alignment that drives mutual growth rather than zero-sum arrangements.

I'm an avid reader and deeply inspired by Chris Dixon’s blog, I've distilled some of my thoughts into the brief posts below, focusing on Product and Business, and Personal Development
