Builder - AI agent ops, Solana infrastructure, open source.
Personal brand / hub: nyk.dev · GitHub: github.com/0xNyk
Ventures under the name: co-founder rpc edge · founded Builderz · selective consulting.
I build the ops layer for AI agent fleets - quotas, safety gates, orchestration, control planes - and prove it in daily use: my ventures run on the same agent stack I open-source, down to the live star counts on this page. 15.8K+ OSS stars (15,839 live across the nyk + Builderz repos on this page), code upstream in Hermes Agent. rpc edge is the Solana infrastructure venture; the rest is public tooling people use.
rpc edge - low-latency Solana infrastructure for high-frequency trading. Dedicated RPC, Yellowstone gRPC, decoded shred streams, and a transaction sender - co-located with the cluster and the Jito Block Engine. Metered bandwidth, self-serve, settled in USDC on Solana. By Polaris Labs.

- Agent teams need operations, not demos.
- The strongest stack is open-core control plane + premium operator UX.
