Czar102
Czar102 is a pseudonymous smart contract security researcher, the founder of the DeFi infrastructure project Blueprints, and a member of the 2025 Paradigm Fellowship. Before Blueprints, they served as Head of Judging at Sherlock, ruling on disputed findings across that platform's audit contests. Their public audit record includes a first place finish in Certora's Gho Token formal verification challenge and placements in Code4rena contests including Badger Citadel, Paladin, and Amun. Their ETHWarsaw talk, on a capital efficient, oracleless design for options, sits inside the same derivatives and mechanism design work that runs through their audit history.
