Ashwin Goyal

Individual
Independent open-source developer in India working on Bitcoin protocol testing and AI-agent safety. I wrote an independent test suite for BIP 360 (P2MR, Bitcoin's proposed post-quantum output type) that found two gaps in the official reference implementation; my fix was ACKed by BIP editor jonatack and merged (bitcoin/bips#2273). The same suite found a real bug in bitcoinjs-lib's P2MR pull request (#2312). I turned that work into a portable conformance kit that any BIP 360 implementation, in any language, can run in CI. I also maintain Rein, an MIT-licensed smart account that an AI agent can operate but cannot drain, and nyaya, an LLM benchmark that scores cost alongside accuracy.
