Top SchoolHao C is a seasoned technology leader and CTO with nine years in crypto and a long engineering pedigree spanning AWS, Harmony, and embedded systems. He has a proven track record shipping complex blockchain protocols, DeFi/NFT middleware, and large-scale distributed systems from conception to production while recruiting and scaling high-performance teams. At PIP Labs he drives technical strategy for Story Protocol and now leads Poseidon’s effort to build a decentralized data platform for AI, blending blockchain-native design with AI infrastructure needs.
