I’m Ole, founder and CEO of delta.
Previously, I did Bachelor’s and Master’s degrees in Mathematics at ETH Zurich. For most of my studies, I focused on pure algebra and algebraic geometry, but toward the end I got into zero-knowledge proofs. From there I became interested in distributed systems.
delta is a permissionless network of domains, a more powerful alternative to blockchains.
My writing is focused on domains and the future they enable.

- Part two of a three-part series exploring the conceptual shift that separates 'the computer' from 'the guarantee machine' and introduces the domain model.
- Part one of a three-part series illustrating why we need domains—taking the developer's point of view to show where blockchains fundamentally fall short.
- Programming GPUs used to be really hard until CUDA made it intuitive. Blockchains face the same challenge today - and need their own CUDA moment.
- Blockchains are one kind of verifiable system—but we've treated them like the only kind. That mistake explains why five years of infra progress hasn't produced five years of new apps.
- A domain is a verifiable system that is more powerful than a blockchain
