From medical doctor to Bitcoin pioneer, Dr. Chandra Duggirala's journey to creating @PortaltoBitcoin is as unique as the protocol itself.
𝗕𝗮𝗰𝗸𝗴𝗿𝗼𝘂𝗻𝗱 MBBS from India, PhD in Biophysics from Northern Illinois University, medical residency at Drexel University.
But @csentropy saw a bigger problem to solve than individual patients, fixing the entire financial system.
Entrepreneurial Success: Built two 8-figure revenue software startups before Portal, earning multiple US patents along the way.
𝗕𝗶𝘁𝗰𝗼𝗶𝗻 𝗘𝘅𝗽𝗲𝗿𝘁𝗶𝘀𝗲 7+ years deep in Bitcoin development, becoming the inventor of the first functional Layer-2 cross-chain atomic swaps protocol.
𝗩𝗶𝘀𝗶𝗼𝗻 Bitcoin doesn't need to change, the infrastructure around it does.
Under Chandra's leadership, Portal has raised $42.5M from top-tier investors including Coinbase Ventures and OKX Ventures.
His unique combination of medical precision, technical innovation, and entrepreneurial experience is driving Portal toward its mission: making Bitcoin the foundation of a truly decentralized financial system. $PTB
