Misha Putatin is the Co-Founder of Symbiotic, a universal staking protocol that redefines how blockchain networks coordinate security. With a background in protocol research, smart contract auditing, and compiler-level vulnerability discovery, Misha brings deep technical fluency and a clear mission: to expand the security surface area of Web3 infrastructure through real, production-grade architecture. Among other infrastructure initiatives Misha was the CEO at MixBytes, a crypto R&D and auditing firm, where he worked across early DeFi systems and led efforts to help Lido expand, launching one of the first cross-chain liquid staking implementations and gaining hands-on experience with shared security and decentralized communication layers like XCM. Misha went on to co-found Statemind, a top-tier auditing firm that surfaced vulnerabilities in major protocols and compilers, including critical bugs in Vyper. But auditing protocol and Blockchain design alone wasn’t enough. The constraints of the model and its inability to scale with crypto’s rising complexity pushed Misha to pursue a broader mandate: securing every link in the crypto transaction pipeline. What began as internal research sprints and freeform “hack retreats” evolved into a deeper investigation into modular infrastructure and the gaps in permissionless security design. In July 2023, that effort crystallized into Symbiotic. After nearly a year of intensive R&D, Symbiotic emerged as the first production-ready shared security protocol, offering real slashing, dynamic rewards, and full-stack economic security without compromising on decentralization. Misha is now leading Symbiotic with a single focus: to build foundational infrastructure that others can rely on, proving that shared security isn’t just a concept, it’s the blueprint for the modular future of crypto.
