cap.eth (Kris Kocic)

About

builder, thinker, investor, and chronic dot-connector

I'm Kris Kocic — cap.eth to most of the internet. My work sits at the intersection of identity, infrastructure, and whatever's happening at the edges where Web3 and AI start to blur.

Most of my time goes into Namespace, where I've spent years working on what I think is one of Web3's most underrated problems: giving people universal, human-readable, persistent identities onchain. I've spent years building the distribution engine for ENS — helping wallets, chains, and apps replace 0x addresses with .eth usernames at scale. That work now powers hundreds of thousands of subnames, millions of resolution requests, and 40+ integrations across ecosystems that most people never realize are quietly stitched together through ENS.

More recently I've been focused on what I think is either the next frontier or our Great Filter: autonomous AI agents as economic actors. With Namera, I'm working on letting devs easily issue smart accounts that let AI agents operate onchain safely by defining permissions, constraints, and behavior upfront without exposing their private keys.

I generally build things that scratch my own itch or for fun. I write to understand things more clearly. I invest in ideas I believe in. I trade occasionally, and when I say trade, I mean I buy shitcoins and never hit sell.

I'm an ENS delegate and a scribe. I host weekly community call about ENS and AI.

I'm based in Serbia. I think in Serbian and English, and sometimes in neither. I'm drawn to poetry, philosophy, and I like to meditate. I love UFC (former boxer and Krav Maga punching bag). I enjoy listening to smart people talk about astronomy and quantum mechanics.

I definitely work too much.

The site you're reading is where I collect my thinking, share what I'm building, and stay honest about the process, including the experiments that work, the ones that don't, and everything in between.
