Nikolay Denisenko

Nikolay Denisenko (also credited as Nick Denisenko) is a fintech engineer and entrepreneur best known as the Co-Founder and Chief Technology Officer of Brighty App, a digital finance platform that combines traditional fiat services with crypto and stablecoin functionality. Trained in applied mathematics, he began his software career as a backend developer before joining Revolut in December 2016 as an early engineer — he has described himself as Revolut's roughly 20th employee — and rising to Lead Backend Engineer, where he contributed to the development of Revolut Business. In October 2020 he left Revolut to co-found Brighty, with the goal of making fiat currencies, crypto assets and stablecoins easier to use together inside everyday financial workflows such as payments, transfers and spending. His more recent public commentary focuses on stablecoin payments, cross-border finance, AI-native banking and automated financial workflows, reflecting Brighty's evolution from a crypto-fiat wallet toward a broader digital finance platform.
