About — Chimdalu Egwu

I am a final-year medical student at Ebonyi State University (EBSU) in Lagos State, Nigeria, a blockchain data analyst, and a data storyteller.

The descriptions of what I do usually belong to different people. Holding them together is deliberate, and it is the most useful thing about the changes I am working to effect.

What connects them

Clinical medicine trains a specific habit of mind: gather what is actually observable, resist the explanation you want to be true, and be honest about the limits of what you know. That habit transfers almost perfectly to data analysis, and the need for collaborations to effect social impact solutions.

Where I work

Three areas, each with its own page:

Medicine & Global Health — Most people who are oppressed do not know they are oppressed. That is what pulled me toward the SDGs, toward gender equality, and toward obstetrics and gynaecology — a field where women's health remains badly under-researched. Final-year MBBS training, and Millennium Fellow and Campus Director for the Class of 2025 — leading Her Path to Power.
Blockchain in Healthcare — If African healthcare will experience exponential growth, it is going to be through blockchain technology. I research and write about what that actually looks like — starting with the records problem, and a systematic review of blockchain-based electronic health records in African healthcare.
Blockchain Data & Storytelling — DataInByte is an onchain adoption intelligence system that measures how blockchain products actually grow — activation, retention and drop-off rather than vanity metrics. Dashboards on Dune, written work on Substack, and placements in analytics competitions run by Flipside Crypto, Token Metrics and Dune.

Education

Ebonyi State University (EBSU) — Bachelor of Medicine, Bachelor of Surgery (MBBS). Expected February 2027.

The name

I publish some of my Web3 and data work as FANTASY. It is a creative name, not a separate identity — the research and the analysis are the same work.
