Mitja Goroshevsky: The blockchain brain you’ve probably never heard of

So your doing DYOR on Acki Nacki and stumble, of course, on founder. Let me help you out. 

Hi’s legit.

Mitja’s not some flashy VC darling who struck gold with crypto memes.

Not Some Crypto Bro

He’s not wearing fancy suits (or does) or dropping buzzwords.

He’s the kind of guy who’s been elbow-deep in real tech long before Web3 was a party.

His résumé runs deep:

  • DeltaThree Communications – Early VoIP pioneer. Literally the guy who made international low-cost calls kind of work instead of suck.

  • Internet Telecom – Built backbone-grade IP infrastructure for enterprise. You know, stuff you only notice when it breaks.

  • BrainsMatch – ML experiments with actual experiments, not just hype.

  • TON Labs (2018) – CTO, helping build infrastructure for Free TON. Hardcore foundational stuff, not glam-stacked.

  • Then: GOSH – building Git-on-chain for real. Because devs get burned by repo shenanigans and smart contracts that silently gas-drain your rent money.

  • And Acki Nacki – co-founder. Like a roguelike card game, but stitched into blockchain. Coded, not just campaigned. And yes, he’s the guy who created The Bitch That Makes You Honest, a game mechanic so merciless it should come with a warning label.

The technical backbone

Mitja co-authored a wild PoS protocol: probabilistic, fast finality, parallelized, and optimized so messaging doesn’t balloon. We’re talking high throughput with Byzantine resistance. Not fluff. Architectural ambition.

Early blockchain patterns ask you to slow down. He’s speeding up.

That’s science, not hype.

Why I’m saying this: my grounds

  • I’ve been in the Acki Nacki community trenches for over a year.

  • I wihitness almost every late-night bug fix, next morning, at first I rage over missing roadmap, adapt when consensus protocol flagged wrong blocks, lose all popits in season 1, applauded when game mechanics synced with chain state and we could play. Moding the Telegram groups so…you read stuff. You see stuff.

  • No roadmap?** Because decentralization is the roadmap “We build first, figure second, explain the community third and burn the keys level.” That’s the ethos. Living the chaos that breeds innovation.

  • Also I’ve done my own research, DYOR, a dozen times. I dug into code repos, whitepapers. I’ve pestered the chat when things broke and celebrated when things got back online.

So yeah, I’m not just “based,” I’m slogging beside the guy, an unfiltered witness to every bug, every breakthrough, every pivot.

So you can trust me bro, i realy want and help that Acki Nacki take over.

** No roadmap? That’s because decentralization is the roadmap. 
 
During Acki Nacki’s first wallet creation event, I’d bet 30% of users lost their wallet keys, torching their entire wallets in the process. Good thing those wallets were empty, or it’d be a digital funeral. But let’s be real: on the blockchain, especially Acki Nacki, losing your keys is game over. No reset button, no customer support to hold your hand.
 
You’re starting fresh, back to level one with a new account, like a kid who dropped his ice cream and has to beg for another scoop.There’s no safety net here, not even the core developers can help, because they’ve burned their keys too. The beast is loose, and it’s in our hands now.
 
Problem is, most of us aren’t ready for it. We’re like toddlers wielding a flamethrower, hyped on freedom but one wrong move from setting the house on fire. Still, that’s the beauty of it: a system that doesn’t coddle you, built for those willing to learn the hard way. So, grab a new wallet, keep those keys safer than your grandma’s secret recipe, and dive back in. The blockchain waits for no one, and Acki Nacki’s chaos is our shot at building something real, scars and all.
 
Well that is the beast Mitja Goroshevsky created.

Bottom line

Two decades of real infrastructure and product-building, followed by a tight descent into consensus tech, decentralizing Git, and designing blockchain gaming mechanics.

Want to know the man? Watch the lines of code, the fixes, the late hours.

My opinion is grounded in boots-on-the-ground participation, daily eyes on the app, chats, bugs report, full immersion in Acki Nacki’s development journey, and my own director-level due-diligence.

DYOR.
