I just reviewed Jordi Baylina's profile and honestly, it's impressive to see how this developer has shaped so much of the Ethereum ecosystem. It's no exaggeration to say that his contributions are everywhere if you look closely.

He started as a technical lead at Giveth, a platform that revolutionized how organizations handle donations on the blockchain transparently. But that was just the beginning. Then came WalletConnect, that open-source protocol we all use without thinking, which connects DApps with mobile wallets via QR code. Baylina was a co-founder of that, and it completely changed how we interact with decentralized applications.

What intrigues me most is his work on IDEN3. While others talked about sovereign identities on the blockchain, Jordi Baylina was building it. It's ambitious, but that's exactly what the space needs.

And we can't forget MiniMe. That token was key for projects like Aragon and District0x because it allowed the creation of flexible and secure voting mechanisms. Many DeFi protocols adopted it because it worked.

Now he's focused on Hermers, a Layer 2 solution for Ethereum. He also continues developing Circom and SnarkJS, tools that are fundamental for applied cryptography. It's the kind of work that doesn't always make headlines but defines how the entire industry evolves.

What’s interesting about Jordi Baylina is that he doesn't seek hype. He aims to solve real problems: scalability, privacy, identity. That’s what keeps him relevant year after year. While many disappear, he continues innovating.
