Perfil do DRep
Mike Rogero (羅邁凱）
For centuries, the economy was constrained by trust. Family businesses dominated because trusting others with cash or goods was risky. That changed in 1458 when Luca Pacioli introduced double-entry bookkeeping, reducing the need for trust and enabling businesses to scale to corporations, laying the foundation for our global economy. Yet, even with this system, risks remained: Can we trust accounts, amounts, and promises, knowing they could be altered? Blockchain is the next evolution of trust. It makes every transaction verifiable, every decision traceable, and every record immutable. Blockchain doesn’t eliminate bad actors, but it makes it far harder for them to do damage, creating a new era of built-in transparency. I believe Cardano is the best platform to build that trust-less financial ecosystem which will benefit all mankind. As a DRep, I’m committed to helping guide Cardano toward that end.

Motivações
The Cardano ecosystem won the lottery when control of the protocol and treasury was handed to the community. But like most lottery winners, we risk squandering these resources and ending up broke. That’s why I volunteered to be a DRep—because Cardano has the potential to become a global powerhouse, but only if we manage its resources wisely. Too many see the treasury as ‘other people’s money,’ and that mindset will lead us to failure. We’ve been given something valuable, and how we manage it will define Cardano’s future. If we waste these resources, we’ll become a cautionary tale. My goal as a DRep is to ensure every investment grows both the ecosystem and the treasury. We must demand discipline, focus on return-based spending, and stick to crypto’s core principles: fixed monetary policy and responsible inflation. I’m not here just to stop waste—I’m here to help Cardano realize its potential. Together, we can build a sustainable, thriving ecosystem positioned for long-term success.
Qualificações
With over 30 years of experience in advertising and technology sales, I know how quickly money and time can be burned on ineffective strategies and marketing. As a financial analyst and fraud examiner, I’ve learned to question every promise and scrutinize every report. My training in anti-money laundering helps me spot red flags that could erode trust in our ecosystem. I bring these skills to ensure that Cardano’s resources aren’t just preserved, but grown and optimized for the long term. I hold the following credentials: MBA from INSEAD CFA Charter holder (Chartered Financial Analyst) CFE (Certified Fraud Examiner) CAMS (Certified Anti-money laundering specialist) BA American University's School of International Service

Secure Comms
Need secure comms. Can't put it all up publicly. No one in Finance is saying their whole strategy publically no one. Or on Discord lol. Looked at some chat apps. I think the best one right now is Threema. $6 is not a lot of money. Does everyone want to get it? And put up your public key ID on your profile so people can message you. Cardano Summit - Yes. CF sent you something through the contact form. Make sure you see it.
Unacceptable Security Risk
No easy way to submit transactions over Tor. Poses an unacceptable risk to governance participants and general users of Cardano.
Long‑Term Treasury Diversification Strategy
I would like to propose an approach for the long-term stabilization and diversification of the treasury. 1. Regular ETF Savings Plan (Broadly Diversified) A portion of the treasury funds could be regularly invested in a broadly diversified ETF (e.g., tracking a global equity index). The goal is to benefit from average market returns over the long term. The savings plan approach (Dollar-Cost Averaging) reduces timing risk Broad diversification minimizes concentration risk Passive ETFs are cost-efficient and transparent 2. Reinvestment of Returns into ADA Generated returns (dividends and/or realized capital gains) could be periodically converted back into ADA and returned to the treasury. Strengthens ADA reserves over the long term Creates an “external yield source” for the ecosystem Enables growth without relying solely on the crypto market 3. Complement through Tokenized Precious Metals (Gold & Silver) Additionally, a small portion of the treasury could be allocated to tokenized gold and silver (e.g., via providers like Finest). Why this makes sense (as a complement to ETFs): Crisis hedge: Gold and silver are traditionally considered safe havens in times of economic uncertainty Low correlation: Precious metals often move independently of equity markets → additional diversification Inflation protection: Gold in particular is widely used as a hedge against currency devaluation Portfolio stability: Helps reduce overall treasury volatility On-chain integration: Tokenized assets remain compatible with blockchain systems and can be managed flexibly 4. Conclusion The combination of: growth-oriented ETFs reinvesting returns into ADA and stabilizing precious metals could make the treasury more robust, sustainable, and less dependent on individual market cycles. I have come across similar approaches before, which is why I wanted to bring this idea back for discussion and further development. Feedback, criticism, and additions are very welcome. I’m not a developer or anyone who can implement this proposal. This is my first time making a suggestion, so please excuse me if something is wrong. Kind regards, René (rene.ada)
