Charon Dian contributed to OneKeyHQ/app-monorepo and KeystoneHQ/keystone3-firmware, building privacy-focused wallet features, DeFi integrations, and robust transaction flows. He engineered Monero and AVAX support at the firmware level, modernized memory management for embedded systems, and delivered hardware wallet onboarding for ava-labs/core-extension. Using TypeScript, Rust, and React, Charon refactored UI/UX for staking, earning, and borrowing modules, improving navigation, error handling, and cross-platform consistency. His work included API integrations, QR code handling, and localization, resulting in more reliable, maintainable codebases. Charon’s engineering demonstrated depth in cryptography, state management, and full stack development, addressing both user experience and technical reliability.
March 2026 highlights for OneKeyHQ/app-monorepo: - Major Pendle integration and UI localization: added Pendle category with i18n updates, enhanced manage flows (swap-based paths) and quote lifecycle (per-tab countdowns, slippage settings) to reduce user friction and improve reliability in Pendle transactions. - Kamino collateral repay: introduced collateral repay flow, expanding borrowing/collateral management capabilities. - Pendle UI and APY labeling refinements: updated Earn portfolio labels and renamed APY fields to reflect "Fixed Income" and "Underlying APY" semantics; aligned visuals and server-driven button states. - Earn UX and data fixes: modal asset search for Earn, new EarnTooltip component for rewards tooltips, BTC Taproot address usage for BTC networks, and data sanitization/asset prefetching improvements to improve reliability and performance. - Portfolio and performance improvements: implemented batch fetch for portfolio tab to accelerate data loading and improve UX across Earn assets and Pendle positions. - Collateral repay tab visibility fix: hidden collateral repay tab entry where not applicable to improve UI clarity. - Non-EVM network handling: skip ERC20/allowance flow on non-EVM chains like Sui to avoid unnecessary steps and gating issues. - Broad tech & reliability gains: extensive React hooks refactors (e.g., usePendleLayoutState, useQuoteCountdown), improved error handling and locale fetching, and backend-driven UI consistency across Pendle/Earn flows. Overall impact: reduced time-to-insight for portfolio data, safer Pendle trading with improved UI guidance and slippage safeguards, expanded collateral/repay capabilities, and stronger BTC Taproot support—positioning the product for broader multi-chain adoption and higher user satisfaction.

March 2025: KeystoneHQ/keystone3-firmware focused on memory management overhaul to improve determinism and stability on SRAM-constrained devices. Implemented an SRAM pool allocator (SramMalloc/SramFree) and added a build-conditional allocator that switches between ExtMalloc/ExtFree and SramMalloc/SramFree based on CYPHERPUNK_VERSION. Ensured RustMalloc/RustFree utilize the SRAM pool. This change reduces fragmentation, improves memory safety, and provides per-build memory strategy configurability.
