Short Biography

Hi, I'm Léo.

I'm a fellow Bitcoin advocate that works on making Bitcoin nodes (the most important part of the network) easily accessible to anyone. That's why since two years I've been working on making Bitcoin Knots (one node implementation) packaged for various distro including Debian and its derivate.

I work for a company called OCEAN, involved in decentralizing Bitcoin mining. As part of our mission, we have released an open-source tool called DATUM Gateway, which lets miners have full control of what they mine. In the same way as Knots, I'm packaging DATUM Gateway for various platforms in order to make it accessible to more miner for the good of the network.

You can find my work for Knots and DATUM on Debian here:
