👋 Hi There.
I’m Ranga “Jin” Fernando,
Based in London, UK.
I turn post-seed and Series A crypto projects into category leaders. I sharpen positioning, tighten the story, and run growth pushes that deliver more users, deeper liquidity, and a moat rivals cannot copy.
Before crypto, I trained as an Anaesthetist.
Patients never follow the script, and neither do users. Winning both groups comes down to clear communication and stripping complexity to the essentials. I bring that clinical habit to Tokenised assets, Stablecoins, DeFi rails, and Consumer apps. I build data-driven growth loops that scale without guesswork.
