I'm Joris

I’m a software developer and Master student in Germany. I work on Bitcoin network-layer tooling: measuring how the P2P network looks from DNS seeders, crawlers, and ASmap data, and feeding what I find back into open-source projects like kartograf and asmap-data.

This site is a working journal.
