Lugui Tillier is the sales manager for Lumx Studios, a leading cryptocurrency firm in Rio de Janeiro. He holds dual citizenship between Belgium and Brazil and has a deep passion for cryptocurrency that started when a friend introduced him to the concept. In 2021, he joined Lumx as his first full-time crypto job.
Lumx is a blockchain abstraction solution for large enterprises. They assist businesses in integrating blockchain into their operations and offer services such as payment solutions and decentralized identity solutions. Their goal is to enable big companies to work with blockchain technology without the need to hire specialized engineers or learn complex infrastructure.
Tillier is responsible for building and maintaining relationships with blockchains and protocols as the sales manager for Lumx. He is also an investor in crypto himself, with a particular interest in layer 2 solutions such as Polygon, Arbitrum, and ZK-Sync. He believes that layer 2s are becoming more prepared for the next wave of crypto adoption.
Additionally, Tillier is excited about the growth of nonfungible tokens (NFTs) on Bitcoin and is a fan of Bitcoin Ordinals and Ordinal Maxi Biz (OMB). He sees Bitcoin and Ethereum as the main consensus platforms in the future, with Bitcoin evolving into a platform for storing and trading other assets.
The main hurdle to mass adoption of blockchain technology, according to Tillier, is its complex infrastructure. It can be challenging for both end-users and traditional companies to navigate. However, emerging abstraction solutions are lowering the barrier to entry and providing a semi-decentralized option for those who prefer it.
In his free time, Tillier enjoys studying philosophy, particularly stoicism. He finds solace in cultivating things that are beyond his control, which helps him navigate the volatility of the crypto world both personally and professionally.
