Writing about web3 protocols I actually use. Farming testnets. Building in public.
I'm Rizki — long-time web3 user from Indonesia, currently focused on protocol writing and testnet farming. I write threads and recaps, contribute on Discord groups, and run small technical write-ups for projects I've actually shipped or interacted with.
This site collects the work I do in one place. Currently it's lean: one featured project (VERONA), plus a list of my writing and contact info. New projects get added as I land them.
Featured · June 2026
VERONA (formerly XION) is the trust layer for AI agents. I'm applying to their Trusted 100 ambassador program. These are the three write-ups I shipped as part of my application — covering what VERONA actually does, the proof-flow architecture, and why the XION → VERONA rebrand isn't just marketing.
01
Plain-words explainer · zkTLS · verUSD
Verification layer under AI agents. zk proofs at the source (zkTLS, zkEmail, zkPassport, zkPhoto, App Attestation). One fact, verified once, reused everywhere.

02
Architecture · sources → proofs → consumers
Three layers: real-world sources (Web, Email, Passport, Photos, Apps), composable zk primitives, and consumers (AI agents, marketplaces, lending, compliance) that reuse the same proof.

03
XION → VERONA · counter-narrative
A skeptical, balanced take on the XION → VERONA rebrand. The primitives (zkTLS, zkEmail, zkPassport) shipped years before the AI-agent meta. Same team, same chain, a name change pointing at the actual problem.

Most writing is in-thread on X. This section gets updated as I publish.
Web3 protocol teams,
happy to do ambassador / writing / community-engagement work on a project-by-project basis.
