DRep Profile
Linh Tran
I want to represent voices that are often overlooked—those who may not be technical, but care about financial responsibility and want the treasury used wisely. As a DRep, I aim to vote based on real-world thinking, balanced analysis, and the values that make Cardano special: transparency, long-termism, and sustainability. I want to help bridge ideas with practical execution.
Objectives
I want to represent voices that are often overlooked—those who may not be technical, but care about financial responsibility and want the treasury used wisely. As a DRep, I aim to vote based on real-world thinking, balanced analysis, and the values that make Cardano special: transparency, long-termism, and sustainability. I want to help bridge ideas with practical execution.
Motivations
The more I followed Cardano governance, the more I saw the importance of the DRep role. I’ve invested in personal finance for over four years and tracked Catalyst closely. I felt called to step up—not just as a passive investor, but as someone who can help improve how proposals are evaluated. I want to make governance more responsible, especially in how funds are allocated and justified.
Qualifications
I’ve worked nearly a decade across operations, finance, and enterprise systems like SAP. I understand how to plan, evaluate, and optimize budgets in the real world. While I don't come from a tech background, I bring strong financial analysis skills and on-the-ground experience. I value practicality, logic, and clear communication. I also follow blockchain education to grow alongside the ecosystem.

CARDANO BLOCKCHAIN ECOSYSTEM CONSTITUTION v2.4
# Three-line summary: 1. Cardano Constitution v2.4 removes non-binding expectations, the Budget Info Action mechanism, and mandatory CC conduct rules, streamlining governance. 2. It adds clear definitions, enforces immutability of proposal documents, and applies treasury audit/accountability safeguards to all withdrawals. 3. This version also incorporates feedback from EMURGO. # Three helpful links 1.

Test title
Test Abstract
High-performance Rust Ogmios Client
We propose developing a high-performance Rust client library for Ogmios, enabling fast, safe, and efficient communication with the Cardano node. While a TypeScript client currently exists, there's a growing demand for Rust-based infrastructure, especially for backend applications requiring low latency, high throughput, and robust memory safety. The library will support all four Ogmios mini-protocols (chain sync, ledger queries, transaction submission, and mempool monitoring). It will be optimized using advanced techniques such as arena allocation, Struct-of-Arrays optimizations, and SIMD parsing, where appropriate. A complete example application and comprehensive test suite (unit, end-to-end, and live network) will ensure usability and reliability. This project lowers the barrier for Rust developers building on Cardano, improves performance for critical applications (e.g., trading bots, DEXes, mempool tools), and better integrates with Cardano's existing Rust-based serialization ecosystem.
