A representative architecture for a gold-backed cross-border settlement network, based on my engineering work with proprietary client details removed.
I worked across blockchain architecture, technical leadership, backend and distributed systems, designing how a permissioned network could combine reserve-backed issuance, multi-party trust, compliance and auditable settlement.
A key architectural decision was separating mutable compliance and personal data from immutable ledger state. Sensitive and erasable information remains off-chain, while the ledger preserves hashes, attestations, supply state and transaction history.
The design also enforces reserve-backed issuance at the protocol level: circulating supply cannot exceed independently attested reserves, with multi-party endorsement preventing unilateral issuance.
My contribution included: blockchain and trust architecture, endorsement and supply-control design, backend/ledger boundaries, Go chaincode architecture, Hyperledger Fabric integration, and Kubernetes-based deployment design.
