- Ensure narrative consistency across investor materials, website, product UX, and public communications.
- Lead marketing strategy and execution for major launches and expansions, including new chains, ecosystems, and integrations.

- Develop co-marketing strategies with protocols, exchanges, wallets, and infrastructure partners.

- Own crisis, risk, and corrective communications when required.
- Ensure marketing never over-promises on yield, timelines, or risk exposure.
- Define and maintain standards for messaging, tone of voice, and visual identity.
