About Kimutai

DeFi Analyst & Blockchain Developer from Nairobi

I'm a passionate DeFi analyst and blockchain developer with a proven track record of optimizing trading strategies across 7+ blockchains. Based in Nairobi, Kenya, I specialize in distilling complex blockchain data into actionable market insights.

My expertise spans on-chain analysis, tokenomics evaluation, and protocol assessment across Ethereum, Base, Solana, and more. I've successfully delivered 30+ high-quality DApps for global clients while maintaining a 100% success rate in deployments.

Beyond development, I'm passionate about education and community building. I've taught 41+ beginners blockchain development and DeFi analysis, and regularly share crypto market insights on Twitter to build thought leadership in the space.

When I'm not analyzing markets or building DApps, you'll find me at blockchain hackathons, connecting with founders, and staying ahead of emerging trends in the rapidly evolving DeFi landscape.
