# Project Founder

CryptoHealth was founded by [**Dr. Mikhail Esteban**](https://www.linkedin.com/in/drmist/), known online as **DR\_MIST**, a licensed public doctor and blockchain developer who has been building the project independently since its inception in **July 2022**.

Operating with **limited funding and no formal team**, Dr. Mikhail has personally:

* **Developed the smart contract** for the CHT token
* **Built and deployed the project website**
* **Manages all social media channels** under the alias **DR\_MIST**
* **Drafts all documentation**, including the whitepaper and Gitbook
* **Handles strategic planning, legal compliance, and technical updates**

The alias **DR\_MIST** is a personal wordplay — drawn from the first two letters of *Mikhail* and the second and third letters of *Esteban*. It reflects both the founder’s identity and his commitment to clarity, simplicity, and transparency in everything CryptoHealth stands for.

This solo effort reflects a deep commitment to transparency, ethical design, and public service. CryptoHealth is not backed by venture capital or marketing agencies — it is a grassroots initiative built from the ground up, with every line of code and every word of outreach crafted by the founder.

Dr. Mikhail’s background in public health informs every aspect of the project. The goal is not speculation, but **real-world utility**: to create a simple, one-time token model that can help people access basic healthcare, especially in underserved communities.

As the project grows, CryptoHealth remains focused on sustainability, transparency, and long-term impact — with the founder continuing to lead development, communications, and community engagement.
