Gintas

Grew up in a Linux terminal, ended up in business - still can't stay out of the terminal.

I like building things and occasionally investing in people who do the same. Built a couple of companies along the way. I appreciate good design, solid engineering, and craft in all its forms.

Thinking about
  • The unglamorous plumbing of finance — regtech, compliance, digital identity
  • Buy-and-build — PE and SaaS rollups
  • Where small, tuned models are genuinely useful, not just a demo
  • DeFi, and whether alternative assets can reach people outside the usual rooms
  • The house at the protocol level — KNX, Modbus, BACnet, Matter
