THE TEAM

Anthony is an aerospace entrepreneur with deep experience in parts trading, teardown, and MRO operations, serving major airlines and repair stations around the globe. He co-founded Athena Research to modernize global supply chains through verifiable blockchain‑based infrastructure, building on a decade inside the aviation aftermarket where paper records and fragmented systems remain the norm.

At Advanced Aerospace, Anthony developed Advanced IDs, a traceability system that links non‑serialized piece‑parts to their higher assemblies using persistent unique identifiers. Anthony began mining Bitcoin in 2015 and later built an early proof‑of‑concept that hashed aircraft part traceability data and Advanced IDs into Bitcoin transactions, years before the current wave of “enterprise blockchain” traceability efforts. That work evolved into Athena’s onchain certification framework. He is also a partner at 6529 Fund, the largest deployer of capital in the NFT ecosystem, and an advisor to Gondi.xyz, the leading platform for lending against NFT assets.
