Introduction

Tané is formed with a group of crypto-native product builders, based in Tokyo, Dubai and New York. We are backed by SoftBank, and Japanese tech giants like DeNA, GREE, MIXI, and have great relationship with Japanese crypto communities.

Our investment arm has invested in and supported various innovating projects that contribute to the decentralized society enabled by the new blockchain technology. Our network operation entity started directly contributing to the ecosystem by being node operators for the core infrastructures and protocols that make Web3 move forward and contributors to the DAOs that manage them. We have been active as delegates in Arbitrum, Optimism, Lido and more.

Takeshi, Head of Network Operations, who worked for Twitter as a senior software engineer and for SmartNews, a Japanese unicorn startup that provides a news aggregation mobile app with 30M MAU as a product manager, is the main representative of the account.

Driver and Values

Motivation

We believe our qualities outlined below uniquely enable us to support ParaSwap’s evolution beyond aggregation, contributing to building a seamless, secure, and gas-efficient decentralized trading ecosystem driven by community governance.

Tech-savvy delegate
Our unique experience and expertise in the tech industries as product builders (entrepreneurs, software engineers, and product managers) should be able to contribute to critical feedback and comments on technical upgrades and issues to be discussed and implemented by collaborating with ParaSwap contributors and external parties.

Japan representative
There are many users and traders using crypto products in Japan, but there are no prominent delegates who actively participate in and contribute to DAO governance from Japan yet. We are aiming to be the one who represents the Japanese users and token holders by being active in the governance, leveraging the partnership with Japanese enterprises and making meaningful impacts on the protocols and the ecosystem.

DAO Governance Experience
We have actively contributed to major DAOs, including Optimism, Arbitrum and Morpho, leveraging our expertise in decentralized governance and funding allocation.
In Optimism, we served on the Grants Council during Season 6 and currently hold a position in the Milestones and Metrics Council for Season 7.
More than participating in the forum discussions, we bring deep expertise in funding mechanisms and ecosystem development, making us particularly well-equipped to contribute to ParaSwap DAO’s future grant strategies and governance evolution.

Values and Decision-Making Approach

We have established our Delegate Core Values as below and demonstrated our delegate activities and decision makings based on them.

Integrity
We value integrity a lot. We believe integrity is the most important virtue even in the industry that values trustless and permissionless. In fact, even though we should aim for governance minimization in the end, the protocols should still need governance and it requires capable and sincere participants. We should be the one of them.

Diversity
Diversity is one of the most important values to achieve decentralization. We are very unique in various perspectives including the geographical diversity (Japan and Asia). We also value diversities provided by other actors and are willing to appreciate them and collaborations with them.

Practicality
We believe in the progressive decentralization. While considering the decentralization is the ultimate goal for crypto/blockchain projects to achieve, we sometimes value practicality and approaches that get things done rather than getting stuck in pursuing the “decentralization” too much from the start.

Transparency
We believe transparency is the vital trait in the decentralized systems. We communicate our findings, feedback, opinions, disagreements and praises in a clear and constructive manner. We believe transparent communications should lead to better discussions and decisions to thrive.

COI Disclosure

Our investment arm, as a separate entity, has invested in a number of crypto startups but as of the time of writing this profile, we don’t believe there are clear COIs in terms of contributing to ParaSwap DAO. We are also active in the other DAOs, Arbitrum, Optimism (Season 7 Milestones and Metrics Council), Lido, Morpho and more in the future.

We will update our voting activities and the rationales behind them in this thread.

Please reach out to us anytime when you have any opinions/comments/feedback.

Waiver of Liability

By delegating to Tané, you acknowledge and agree that Tané will participate on a best-efforts basis and will not be liable for any damages related to participation in ParaSwap or its DAO.

PIP-61: Increase Quorum Threshold (Snapshot)

Summary:

This proposal suggests increasing the ParaSwap governance quorum threshold from the current 2% (30M PSP) to 6% (90M PSP) of the circulating supply. This change aims to ensure decisions reflect broader community agreement and enhance DAO security.

Vote: For

Rationale:

Recent votes consistently show participation far exceeding the current quorum, often around 200M PSP, indicating the proposed threshold is readily achievable. Furthermore, raising the quorum enhances DAO security by making governance attacks more difficult and expensive, which is crucial for protecting the protocol.

PIP-62 - Velora Governance Task Force (Snapshot)

Summary:
This proposal outlines SEEDGov’s transition to a more comprehensive governance role within Velora DAO. This change addresses the observed need for dedicated, long-term guidance and incentive alignment within the revitalized DAO.

Vote: For

Rationale:

Given SEEDGov’s significant existing role within Velora governance, expanding their responsibilities represents a logical progression.
The demanding scope outlined in the proposal, covering vital governance functions and strategy, requires dedicated expertise and resources, which would require a decent amount of compensation.
Also, aligning incentives with the overall success of the protocol is crucial, particularly as the role’s scope includes activities focused on driving growth.

3

Rewards distribution for Epoch 29 (Snapshot)

Summary:

This proposal aims to execute the Epoch 29 rewards distribution by allocating a total of 125.88 wETH, with 114.44 wETH on ETH Mainnet and 11.44 wETH on OP Mainnet, and further proposes a separate 0.90 wETH fee transfer to WakeUp Labs.

Vote: For

Rationale:

This proposal implements a straightforward public rewards distribution using transparent, automated mechanisms that reduce manual overhead and risk of error. We reviewed the details and found no issues, supporting its approval.

4

PIP-63 - ParaSwap Growth Working Group Outcome - Velora Growth Framework (VGF) and Velora Growth Committee (VGC) (Snapshot)

Summary:

This proposal establishes the Velora Growth Framework (VGF) and the Velora Growth Committee (VGC) as a permanent DAO structure to drive growth initiatives, particularly focusing on DAO-to-DAO integrations and partnerships, complementing existing efforts by Laita Labs and the Foundation.

Vote: For

Rationale:

This proposal effectively leverages a community-driven approach to growth initiatives, as demonstrated by several successful examples. A structured review after the initial 6-month trial is essential to ensure proper execution. Given the moderate scale of the proposed budget for a 6-month period, we see no significant concerns regarding expenditure.

5

Velora Growth Committee (VGC) - Election Season 1 (Snapshot)

Summary:

This proposal empowers Velora token holders to select 3 of 7 candidates for the Velora Growth Committee. The VGC will operate for 6 months as a 3-member team directing growth strategy, marketing and partnership initiatives.

Vote:

  • PGov
  • citizen42

Rationale:

The committee needs high-skill members who are also free from outside incentives, and these two meet both tests. PGov brings rigorous KPI oversight across multiple blue-chip DAOs, and citizen42 contributed directly to PIP-63 design; neither holds paid roles with 1inch, CoW, or other intent-based DEX competitors. Their independence and complementary strengths will drive reliable growth delivery.

6

Rewards distribution for Epoch 30 (Snapshot)

Summary:

The proposal calls for Epoch 30 reward distribution, moving 40.6979 wETH on Ethereum and 4.0878 wETH on Optimism to stakers and paying WakeUp Labs a 0.3384 wETH service fee.

Vote: For

Rationale:

This proposal performs a standard Epoch 30 rewards distribution, and we found no material issues in its execution plan or safeguards.

Because such actions are strictly operational, we suggest investigating lower-overhead approaches, such as delegating routine transfers to a small reporting committee or adopting an optimistic execution module like Lido’s Easy Track, to free DAO governance participants for higher-impact governance while retaining on-chain transparency through Merkle proofs and public verification tools.

PIP-64: Formalisation of Laita Labs as a Service Provider (Snapshot)

Summary:

This proposal formalizes Laita Labs as a Velora DAO service provider, granting a $300k upfront ETH payment and $60k per epoch for 12 months. The funding underwrites marketing, infrastructure, and governance work that has already driven $100B+ in cumulative volume over six years.

Vote: For

Rationale:

This proposal formalizes Laita Labs as a service provider after years of reliably steering Velora’s growth, and we see no reason to question their receipt of funds. The requested $300k upfront plus $60k each epoch for 12 months is modest for a protocol of this scale and appears entirely appropriate.

Gas Refunds distribution for Epoch 30 (Snapshot)

Summary:

The proposal executes Velora DAO’s Epoch 30 gas refund, sending 109357.139901 sePSP1 to eligible sePSP1 and sePSP2 stakers.

Vote: For

Rationale:

The action aligns with the DAO’s standing refund policy, introduces no technical or economic risk, and benefits active participants by offsetting network costs. Finding no grounds for opposition, we support its passage.

7

Gas Refunds distribution for Epoch 31 (Snapshot)

Summary:

This proposal aims to distribute gas refunds totaling 113,561 sePSP1 for Epoch 31 across Ethereum and Optimism Mainnets, targeting users staking sePSP1 and sePSP2, ensuring transaction integrity via Merkle tree hashes.

Vote: For

Rationale:

This proposal implements the routine gas-refund distribution for Epoch 31; the configuration matches the parameters the DAO has already approved, and we see no issues with execution, so we support its enactment.

Rewards distribution for Epoch 31 (Snapshot)

Summary:

This proposal seeks approval for distributing 23.95 wETH in staking rewards for Epoch 31 to sePSP1 and sePSP2 stakers on Ethereum and Optimism, including a 0.18 wETH distribution fee for WakeUp Labs, to streamline reward automation and enhance user transparency.

Vote: For

Rationale:

This proposal involves operational details and configurations that appear correct and consistent with the previously approved direction. Since the broader strategy has already been validated, we see no issues with moving forward with this execution.

8

PIP-65 - Enhancing Predictability in VeloraDAO Governance (Snapshot)

Summary:

This proposal seeks to standardize VeloraDAO’s Snapshot voting process by starting all votes on Thursdays, extending the voting window from five to seven days, and pausing new votes during the holiday period from December 24 to January 6. The goal is to boost delegate participation and predictability by aligning voting windows with peak engagement and minimizing weekend deadlines.

Vote: Adopt only Holiday break

Rationale:

This proposal’s standardized voting schedule introduces more drawbacks than benefits, mainly due to the loss of flexibility and slower decision-making. To address these challenges, we believe we should consider solutions like an optimistic approval process that maintains safety while allowing for faster action. While we do not see the holiday break itself as something that strictly requires a governance vote, we support its introduction for convenience.

9

PIP-66 - Deprecation of the Governance Committee (Snapshot)

Summary:

This proposal aims to deprecate the Governance Committee (GovCo) of Velora DAO, eliminating a redundant structure that costs around $5k monthly, given that its responsibilities have become obsolete due to automated fee distribution mechanisms introduced by PIP-55.

Vote: For

Rationale:

This proposal effectively eliminates an outdated structure, significantly reduces unnecessary costs (~$5k/month), and enhances the DAO’s decentralization and operational efficiency. By leveraging automated processes and empowering active delegates, it streamlines governance decisions while maintaining essential security through a thoughtfully redesigned multisig signer system. Overall, the shift ensures robust, transparent, and agile governance aligned with the DAO’s long-term goals.

PIP-67: Project Miro - Deployment of VLR on BSC (Snapshot)

Summary:

The proposal outlines deploying the VLR token on BSC with an initial $600k Protocol-Owned Liquidity (PoL), leveraging existing allocations from PIP-56 and using PancakeSwap for liquidity management. BSC’s large user base (~$6.1B TVL) and significant DEX trading volumes are targeted to expand Velora’s ecosystem.

Vote: For

Rationale:

Deploying VLR on BSC aligns closely with Project Miro’s roadmap and efficiently utilizes resources previously allocated, thus avoiding additional financial burdens on the DAO. The team’s openness to employing active liquidity management solutions provides confidence that impermanent loss, will be minimized. Additionally, targeted marketing strategies and the introduction of staking and cross-chain voting via Delta offer robust mechanisms for driving adoption on BSC.
