Hi there 👋🏻

I'm Marvin Sunday, but most people in the Solana and blockchain space know me as Mad Marvin. I've been in blockchain since 2020, starting during the memecoin boom on Solana, and I even used the famous Sollet.io wallet.

These days, I conduct deep research on blockchain protocols and concepts, code in Solidity and C++ (embedded systems), and I'm learning Rust and SQL to expand my skill set. I'm always curious about new projects and collaborations.

Feel free to check out all my socials on my Linktree below to get the full picture of what I'm working on.

The full suite of my portfolio includes code, research work, technical writing, and event/public speaking.

Research Work

My research work cuts across technical, market, and blockchain. Below is a full list of my previous research work.

The Solana Nigeria Product Landscape Report was a product and market research study on 14 of Superteam Nigeria's mainnet startups. It explored their business models, markets, achievements, and current constraints. This research aims to highlight and showcase Solana Builders in Nigeria to investors, users, and communities globally.

The Stable.fun Litepaper is a marketing paper or offering created to showcase how yield-bearing stablecoins are a better option for saving than regular stablecoins. It was part of a marketing campaign for Replico Labs’ stablecoin product, which was used to start conversations with treasury managers and power users on Solana.

The Beyond Free Tokens Research Paper was a research analysis on token airdrops and their effectiveness in onboarding and retaining users for blockchain protocols and communities. In the research, we highlighted* the history of token distribution starting from Bitcoin, after which we ran a success analysis on notable airdrops, and we compared airdrops with other distribution mechanisms (mining and ICOs). The research purpose was to highlight to communities and startups that one-time airdrops were inefficient in user retention.*

Technical and Blog Writing

I also write on topics concerning blockchain; they come in long-form threads or technical articles. Below is the list of my current article publications and a few threads.

In this article publication, we discuss blockchain from a technological, financial, and marketing perspective, highlighting blockchain in Africa and the world.
