Kevan Burns

Sovereign Infrastructure & Namespace Architect

I build deterministic systems that own their own identity, custody, compliance, and settlement. 15+ sovereign systems spanning capital infrastructure, AI intelligence, blockchain economies, energy, research publishing, and institutional operations. 2,070+ tests. 23+ smart contracts. 13 blockchains. Every system is sovereign.

“I didn't wait for permission to build. I built the infrastructure, then published the proof.”

Sovereign Capital Infrastructure

Where Capital Meets Code

Every dollar flows through deterministic rails — no undefined failures, no manual overrides, no trust assumptions.

UnyKorn L1

17 Rust Crates · 398+ Tests · 0 Unsafe

4-tier Rust blockchain runtime. POPEYE (P2P) → TEV (Ed25519) → MARS (State) → TAR (Persistence). 3s block time.

SUPER-S Platform

100+ Modules · 13 Chains · 22 Categories

Full-stack digital capital markets OS. Issues, settles, custodies, and governs tokenized instruments. 12 vault roles, 3 custodians, 10 exchanges.

SunFarm Platform

50 MW Solar · $90M Basis · 7 Engines

Deterministic capital modeling for 50 MW Solar + 100 MWh BESS. SPV architecture, 14+ funding pathways, DR regulatory stack.

OPTKAS Portal

134 Capabilities · 9 Mainnet Accounts · 1,213+ Tests

Institutional digital securities platform. XRPL and Stellar settlement with $500M MTN program legal framework.

Funding Engine

17 Crates · Trait-Based Connectors

Rust settlement layer. FundingRouter selects providers by policy. FundingLedger maintains deterministic state with replayable audit logs.

Helios Gold Vault

999.9 Fine · LBMA · Brink's Vault

Physical gold tokenization. APMEX acquisition, Citadel Global storage, Brink's segregated vault. No fractional reserve.

Sovereign Intelligence & AI

Systems That Think for Themselves

AI shouldn't depend on someone else's API. Every model, every tool, every decision loop runs inside sovereign infrastructure.

KAIROS AI

24 MCP Tools · 5 Categories · RAG Pipelines

Sovereign AI OS. MCP server architecture, agentic workflows, tool registry, memory persistence, policy enforcement.

GMIIE

26 Modules · 5 Rings · 14 Jurisdictions

Global monetary infrastructure analysis. Monitors CBDCs, settlement networks, payment corridors. NIG score across jurisdictions.

Commodity Intelligence

Multi-Market · Cross-Border · Supply Chain

Precious metals, energy, and agricultural analysis. Cross-border sourcing, supply chain verification, 20+ years operational data.

Blockchain Economies & Settlement

On-Chain, On Purpose

Deployed and sealed. No upgrade keys. No admin multisigs. The contract is the contract.

ACNC (ODNC)

18 Contracts · 6,551 NFTs · 352 Tests

Closed deflationary economy on Polygon. 0.5% burn + 0.5% treasury per transfer. ERC-6551, Vault, Focus Pools. Deployed & sealed.

XRPL Settlement

XLS-38d · Escrow · DEX · 3-of-5 Signing

Live XRPL integration: escrow, settlement routing, memo attestation, trust lines, DEX, threshold signing.

.X Namespace Protocol

18 Root Domains · ERC-721

Sovereign Web3 identity lattice. ERC-721 registrar, IPFS resolver, hardware wallet binding, XRPL memo anchoring.

Research & Publishing

Published, Not Promised

If it doesn't have a DOI, a Merkle root, and a reproducible build — it's not research. It's a blog post.

Genesis Protocol

13 Crates · 349 Tests · 1,820 Worlds

Evolutionary economics simulation. SHA-256 genomes, logistic resources, natural selection. 10,000-epoch runs. DOI published.

LPS-1 Literary Protocol

5 Contracts · 58 Tests · 4-Tree Merkle

Ecosystem & Operations

Two Decades of Operational Proof

These aren't startups. FTH Trading has been operational for 20+ years. The systems just got better.

FTH Boutique OS

8 Modules · Full Trading Stack

Digital operating system for institutional commodity trading. Risk analytics, compliance automation, settlement, 20+ years operational.

Digital Empire Index

13 Platforms · IPFS Deployed · IPNS Anchored

Portfolio tracking for digital capital assets. IPFS deployment with IPNS persistent name resolution and CIDv1 addressing.

Architecture

4-Tier Sovereign Stack

Each tier enforces strict trust boundaries. Data flows upward through verification gates.

“If a layer can't verify what's below it, the system halts. That's not a bug — that's the design.”

What Comes Next

The Infrastructure Is Built. Now It Scales.

“I don't pitch. I ship. The codebase is the pitch deck.”

I'm looking for teams and organizations that need infrastructure architects who ship real code — not slide decks. If you're building something that requires deterministic execution, multi-chain settlement, or sovereign identity systems, let's talk.
