CEO at Cubane | Blockchain Entrepreneur | Tech Innovator | Building the Future of Decentralized Technology

As an entrepreneur with a strong background in operations and marketing, I am passionate about technology and its potential to transform industries. My entrepreneurial journey began in 2019, where I initially started a service company. While this first venture ended quickly, it provided invaluable lessons that fueled my determination to innovate. In 2020, I pivoted to a gaming platform, which saw rapid success, generating 20 lakh in transactions and a profit of 12 lakh within four months.

In 2021, I founded ChatBuck, a decentralized communication platform that has garnered 30K downloads and is now a key part of the Cubane ecosystem. As the CEO of Cubane, I am leading the charge in building an FHE-backed, CCCM-powered Layer 1 blockchain infrastructure. Cubane is designed to address the most pressing challenges in industries like insurance, media-IPR, healthcare, SaaS, and beyond.

I am deeply passionate about collaborating with like-minded individuals, exploring new opportunities, and driving innovation in the blockchain space. If you want to reach out to me, feel free to do so at jitesh@cubane.space or jitesh@chatbuck.com.
