Projects

Pakana.net is the flagship DeFi and FinTech platform developed by Lockb0x LLC. It serves as a comprehensive Stellar blockchain financial services hub — handling payment processing, smart contract and document lifecycle management, fiat bank account integration, and QuickBooks accounting connectivity. The platform is the production proving ground for the entire Pakana component suite and targets enterprise clients that need legally-compliant, blockchain-anchored financial workflows aligned with GDPR and U.S. Uniform Commercial Code (UCC) Section 12. Currently in beta with active refinement of the fiat on-ramp and DeFi modules.

NodeZero is a decentralized alternate reality game (ARG) and lore archive that layers interactive storytelling across multiple blockchain networks. Players gather encrypted fragments, solve multi-stage puzzles, and contribute canonical stories — each accepted contribution is dual-anchored: committed to GitHub as an immutable record and minted as an NFT on the Lamina1 platform. Access is gated through a Linea Proof of Humanity check (SumSub/Linea Hub), preventing bot farming while keeping identity pseudonymous. The backend private repo powers the site, game engine logic, puzzle state management, and reward distribution via Stellar.

Social is a community and creator networking platform built on top of the Lockb0x identity and data-sovereignty stack. The platform enables blockchain-verified profiles, sovereign content ownership, and on-chain social graphs — giving creators and communities control over their data without relying on centralized intermediaries. Designed to integrate with the broader Pakana and NodeZero ecosystems, it provides opt-in public presence backed by cryptographic identity anchors rather than platform accounts.

HotKane.com is a web platform focused on content discovery and community engagement, built with a modern full-stack architecture. Developed within the Lockb0x LLC ecosystem, it layers creator-focused features on top of the organization's existing identity and blockchain infrastructure. The project explores new models for monetization and audience interaction outside the boundaries of major social media platforms.

A public gallery of self-contained, single-page Stellar Network analysis and visualization experiments. Each "toy" is a standalone HTML file — no build step, no backend — designed to demonstrate real-time data pulls from the Stellar Horizon API. Includes a Stellar Ledger Analyzer and a Slate Network Pulse dashboard. Developed to support and prototype features for Pakana.net.

A NuGet component library providing reusable ASP.NET Razor and Blazor UI components for Stellar blockchain integration. Funded by the Stellar Community Foundation (SCF-25), this library enables .NET developers to embed Stellar account creation, payments, multi-signature wallets, and trustline management directly into web applications with minimal configuration. Currently at v1.0.0, distributed via NuGet.org and used in the Pakana.net production platform.

A TypeScript/Next.js web application that models syndicated and agented loans as deterministic state machines. Instead of fragmented email threads and spreadsheets, LSL provides a single authoritative, append-only ledger of loan events — each with explicit assertions, multi-party acknowledgements, and effective timestamps. Implements the Lockb0x Protocol for tamper-evident data custody. Built as a hackathon prototype to prove the concept; targets loan operations teams, agent banks, credit officers, and legal/compliance departments.

A modular Python/Streamlit dashboard for tracking and visualizing systemic liquidity stress indicators in the U.S. financial system. Monitors ON RRP balances, bank reserve levels, SOFR spreads, Standing Repo Facility usage, and Treasury issuance patterns. Containerized with Docker for portability and designed for forensic analysts, macro strategists, and capital allocators who need a clear, real-time picture of structural liquidity stress.

An open standard and C# reference implementation for proving the existence, integrity, and custodianship of digital data — submitted as an IETF Internet Draft (draft-tomlinson-lockb0x). At its core, a Codex Entry links storage proofs (IPFS, S3, Azure Blob), cryptographic integrity hashes, multi-algorithm signatures (Ed25519, ES256K, RS256), and blockchain anchors (Stellar, Ethereum, Avalanche) into a tamper-evident chain of custody. Aligned with W3C DIDs, Verifiable Credentials, RFC 6920, RFC 7515, GDPR, and U.S. UCC Section 12 — enabling Controllable Electronic Records (CER) for use in commerce, legal proceedings, and cross-organizational audits.

The public lore archive and contribution portal for the NodeZero ARG/metaverse project. Houses canonical stories, character dossiers, timeline lore, glossary, and community-contributed fragments. Contributors follow a dual-anchoring model: every merged pull request is also minted as a Lamina1 NFT, making each fragment immutably attributed on-chain. The archive is structured to support Markdown storytellers and HTML architects, preserving the immutable causality of the block-universe narrative.

RelayForge is a decentralized infrastructure orchestration platform that lets teams automate complex workflows across cloud, on-premise, and hybrid environments — avoiding vendor lock-in and providing full operational auditability. Features a Go API server (Gin), Next.js web UI, federated distributed runners, a CLI, and YAML-defined workflow templates. Integrates with GitHub OAuth, Docker, PostgreSQL, AWS, GCP, and Azure. Designed for platform engineering teams, multi-cloud deployments, and automated DevSecOps pipelines.

Panhandler.chat is a narrow-purpose AI chatbot that begs for XLM donations using Gen X-era wit, sarcasm, and charm. The stack runs a self-hosted Hermes 2 Pro (Mistral 7B GGUF) model via llama.cpp on an Azure VM, exposed through a FastAPI wrapper, consumed by an ASP.NET Core Razor frontend. Demonstrates how small, character-driven AI personas can be deployed cheaply on private infrastructure and monetized via Stellar micro-payments — with a roadmap toward a multi-user "deploy your own panhandler" platform.

A Visual Studio project template that integrates Stellar blockchain account management into the Microsoft Identity Platform (ASP.NET Core Identity / Microsoft Entra). Adds QR-code-based MFA with Stellar transaction signing, Freighter wallet authentication, and Muxed account-based role/group management — giving developers a production-ready starting point for blockchain-integrated .NET web apps. Saves weeks of boilerplate compared to building from scratch, and pairs seamlessly with the Pakana component suite.

A NuGet library (PakanaRazorSDEX) providing Razor components for integrating Stellar Decentralized Exchange (SDEX) trading features into .NET applications. Covers the full trading surface: real-time order books, open/completed orders, buy/sell offer submission, portfolio tracking, market depth visualization, transaction history, fee calculators, multi-account/multi-sig management, and optional Soroban smart contract integration. Extends the Stellar Identity Framework and Pakana components to create a complete .NET DeFi application stack.
