I'm Sunny Aggarwal (@sunnya97),
a founder, builder, and adventurer.
I create systems to help people, agents, and networks coordinate. I've been building in crypto since 2017 — most notably co-founding Osmosis — as a way to advance sovereignty and privacy in a rapidly changing world. My real-world adventures reflect the same pursuit: experiencing freedom and agency across physical frontiers. I update my now page regularly with what I'm up to.
Once in a while, I write blog posts on a variety of subjects:
Why content coins are broken and how we might build better systems for content speculation
Exploring a recurring historical pattern where rulers align with the masses to bypass intermediary power structures, from Caesar to modern democracies.
After five years defending NYC in the city wars, I'm finally admitting defeat and moving back to San Francisco as the tech scene has evolved.
I regularly give talks and speak on podcasts:
Deep dive into Osmosis and the proof of stake ecosystem with insights on building in the interchain.
Bitcoin must transition to proof of stake to ensure its long-term security and sustainability amidst decreasing block rewards and competition from alternative payment networks.
Polaris is a new token portal designed to streamline cross-chain trading by aggregating liquidity and simplifying user experience across multiple blockchain ecosystems.
