Perfil do DRep
Fred Tanaka
I believe Cardano is the most advanced and future-resilient blockchain, capable of becoming the trusted infrastructure layer for real-world systems, not just crypto projects. As a DRep, I want to support proposals that bring commercial adoption and enterprise integration of Cardano particularly in Japan and Asia where decision-makers are still exploring their foundational blockchain stack. Firms like Toyota Blockchain Lab, global conglomerates, and sovereign agencies are still determining what rails they will build on. That decision will shape the next 20 years. I want to make sure Cardano is in that conversation technically, culturally, politically, and commercially. I bring experience in brand and corporate strategy and will vote to protect the vision of Cardano vision, challenge with respect, study the issues and represent the kind of governance that helps Cardano grow with strength, purpose, and long-term relevance.

Motivações
The role of a DRep matters not just symbolically, but structurally. I’m stepping forward because I want to ensure that Cardano doesn’t just survive but succeeds, commercially and reputation-wise, in one of the most complex and opportunity-rich regions in the world. The governance system will play a decisive role in how Cardano moves forward. It needs people with external networks, real commercial experience, and a willingness to challenge the status quo when necessary. I bring a track record of building trust and influence with Web3 blockchain and mainstream media, enterprises, and blockchain industry insiders in Japan where Cardano has a strong community and there is an opportunity ahead to expand this exponentially. I want Cardano to be taken seriously by governments, C-suites, regulators, and everyday people. That will require more than on-chain activity it will require strategy, credibility, and connection. That’s what I bring, and that’s why I want to serve.
Qualificações
I conduct strategic communications, business development, and reputation management campaigns for global brands. With deep experience advising founders, navigating Japanese corporate politics, and working on secondment between local and global offices I can bring a seasoned approach to managing processes and resolutions. I’ve built strong working relationships with Japanese media, agencies, and executives in sectors relevant to blockchain adoption and trusted by local partners to provide a holistic overview to stakeholders for the success of their operations in Japan. I have extensive experience working with high-profile media and social media influencers in Japan and regularly advise on messaging, positioning, and engagement strategy. These are the kinds of tools Cardano will need to compete in the Japanese economy and across Asia. In addition I have participated in governance conversations across Catalyst and other parts of the Cardano ecosystem.

Cardano Constitutional Dept Workstreams
This proposal establishes a Governance Workstream Consortium which establishes decentralized execution framework, ROM Multisig Model, to support the delivery of constitutional dept workstreams in Cardano. Its core aim is to ensure that budgeted governance tasks are completed verifiably, transparently, and without relying on a single administrator.
Safer, Smarter Cardano: From Personal Loss to Community Protections
In my early crypto journey, I fell for a scam that cost me $1,700—a loss born not from ignorance, but misplaced confidence. I believed I could outwit deception by changing the script. I couldn’t. That moment taught me that even intelligent users are vulnerable in a system that offers no safety net. What kept me grounded was Cardano: its mission of research, patience, and principled design. That mission is why I stayed. Yet Cardano’s openness and decentralization, while empowering, also expose users to hidden dangers: cloned tokens, misleading branding, and overhyped projects. This proposal introduces a framework for improving wallet-layer safety and trust, including UI enhancements, opt-in transparency tools, and a community-reviewed case study examining the breakdown of post-ISO trust.
Ironlight: Tokenization Marketplace for Traditional Finance
Ironlight is bringing Tokenization to TradFi. This is done by creating a fully regulated secondary trading venue for tokenized Real World Assets (RWA). The RWAs are private market funds, company equity and real estate. Ironlight is different from most other players in 3 major aspects: 1. Liquidity: Ironlight has secured 4 major institutions to backstop trading. Additionally, RIAs & Wealth Advisors from the major banks are market participants. 2. Sponsor Access Model: The Alternative Trading System (ATS) allows for trading & settling between anyone in the US financial system not just within it’s own network. This allows for dramatically more participants and thus facilitates liquidity. 3. Institutional Grade Technology: Built from the ground up, the technology can process 2 million messages per second at 20 microseconds per transaction. Additionally, built under Reg SCI. The technology was built at the same standard Wall Street expects for Public Market ATS/Exchanges.
