Igor Żuk is a pragmatic software engineer with nine years of experience building high-performance, secure backend systems and blockchain infrastructure from Barcelona. He has deep Rust expertise evidenced by contributions to a Cardano node backend and implementing a TLS-enabled REST API for the privacy-focused jormungandr blockchain node. At Monadic he designed and implemented a funding-pool smart contract and helped pivot a PoW Rust project into production Solidity contracts including ERC‑20, DAO governance and ENS subdomains. His background spans systems-level Rust services, distributed P2P networks, GRPC/REST interfaces and traditional Java stacks, reflecting an ability to move between low-level concurrency and pragmatic web integration. Curious and self-directed, he has repeatedly taken ownership of end-to-end components—from protocol implementations to deployment automation—while collaborating with open-source communities.

Contributions summary:Igor primarily contributed to building a REST API server service for the jormungandr blockchain node. They implemented the core functionality to create and run the REST API server, including TLS configuration for secure communication. Furthermore, the user integrated features to retrieve node statistics, such as transaction and block counts, and included a method to fetch and display the UTXO set via the REST API. Finally, the user added a mechanism for receiving messages in the form of hex-encoded data.
