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.
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, Uniswap, 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.
Motivation
We believe we can contribute to the Safe DAO in unique and meaningful ways, and help Safe achieve its mission of driving smart account adoption to deliver improved user experience and robust security.
Tech-savvy delegate
Our unique experience and expertises 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 Safe 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.
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 a vital trait in 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.
Disclosures
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 Safe DAO. We are also active in the other DAOs, Arbitrum, Optimism (S6 Grants Council member), Uniswap, Lido 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 Safe or its DAO.
