Benjamin Damm

Germanist and software developer – if you're wondering how these fit together, you probably understand neither language nor code very well. With Treno.Finance, I'm building a toolkit designed to uncover crypto risks before they're large enough to keep investors awake at night.

I used to dissect poetry; now I deconstruct DeFi protocols—with roughly the same precision, but slightly less poetry. I value robust architectures and distrust buzzwords on principle. AI? Fascinating. But substance is even more fascinating. Stablecoins? Stable—until suddenly they're not.

My writing is the opposite of fluffy, feel-good articles: I prefer clarity over kindness, insight over noise, and a subtle irony over false authority.

When I’m not busy chasing digital half-truths, I'm building Angular & React components, pondering dopamine cycles, or searching for semantic answers to questions nobody has asked yet.

If you prefer clear statements over hollow phrases, you’re in the right place.
Everyone else, I politely recommend a few rounds of ChatGPT.
