John MacPherson — CEO
I’m a strategic operator and ecosystem builder with 10+ years in Web3, specializing in DeFi, tokenomics, and institutional partnerships. From scaling Cardano’s global exchange network to securing critical grant funding for decentralized infrastructure at Andiami (under Ethereum co-founder Anthony Di Iorio), I’ve led initiatives that bridge compliance, funding, and innovation. I advise projects like Skrybit.io and IncTank GTM on ecosystem strategy, growth frameworks, and blockchain integrations—leveraging my experience across Cardano, PIVX, Andiami and the Canadian Blockchain Consortium to drive adoption and regulatory clarity. My mission: empower communities, secure infrastructure funding, and shape the future of decentralized governance.
