Tan Gera spent years working for the wealthy on Wall Street, in Paris, and in Amsterdam.
Now he’s flipping the script.
The CFA charterholder is using everything the traditional finance industry taught him to help regular investors systematically outperform the very institutions that trained him.
Through Decentralized Masters, his private community, 3,500+ members collectively manage billions in digital asset investments.
Decentralized Masters’ members are generating returns that make conventional finance look obsolete while focusing on strict risk management and capital preservation.
Why CFA Credentials Matter
Most crypto investors are speculating, not investing. They chase hype, buy random altcoins, and wonder why they keep losing it all.
The ABN System, created by CFA Charterholder Tan, eliminates this amateur behavior through three core disciplines: systematic risk management, comprehensive asset analysis, and portfolio construction based on mathematical principles rather than hope.
Applied to crypto markets, this methodology becomes devastatingly effective. It’s the difference between speculation and systematic wealth creation.
The Hidden Markets Where Real Returns Are Generated
Two completely separate crypto markets operate simultaneously. Most investors only see one.
Retail investors typically wait for coins to hit Coinbase or Binance, but institutional players position themselves months earlier through “Native markets”—essentially the open venture capital market of crypto.
“By the time an asset reaches mainstream exchanges, institutions have already captured the majority of upside,” Tan reveals.
Decentralized Masters teaches members to access these same Native markets using institutional-grade analytical tools and methodology.
Wall Street’s Crypto Infrastructure
While retail investors debated crypto’s legitimacy, institutional players built infrastructure.
BlackRock, JPMorgan, and Goldman Sachs all developed crypto products. Bitcoin ETF approvals drove $50+ billion in institutional inflows.
“We’re witnessing a fundamental shift in how institutional capital views this space,” Tan observes. “The same methods Wall Street uses for 9-figure portfolios are now being applied to digital assets, but with significantly higher return potential due to its nascency.”
The institutional validation proves Tan’s core belief: sophisticated investment strategies can be democratized without losing their effectiveness.
Real Performance From Members Managing Billions
The collective results from billions in member-managed DeFi assets show what’s possible when systematic education meets emerging market opportunities. The real value lies in the educational framework that helps members make more informed decisions.
“When you combine institutional knowledge with early market access, the results can be significant,” Tan notes. “We’re teaching people to think differently about digital assets.”

The platform combines comprehensive education with elite networking and 1-1 mentorship. Members learn systematic approaches to evaluating DeFi opportunities while connecting with others navigating the same space.
The community aspect creates additional learning opportunities. When experienced members share insights and strategies, newer members benefit from collective knowledge and experience.
Breaking the Information Monopoly
Traditional finance profits from information asymmetry. Institutions know things retail investors don’t, monetizing that knowledge gap.
Decentralized Masters inverts this model completely. Instead of hoarding information, they share everything: strategies, results, even failures. It’s the antithesis of Wall Street’s secretive culture.
This approach solves the fundamental problem facing retail investors: access to institutional-quality analysis and opportunities that have been deliberately withheld.
The Closing Window Before Institutions Dominate
Market inefficiencies don’t last forever.
As traditional financial institutions build crypto infrastructure and regulatory frameworks mature, current opportunity windows narrow. The structural advantages of DeFi—24/7 markets, global access, eliminated intermediaries—combined with institutional-grade analysis create what Tan calls “the ultimate asymmetric opportunity.”
But it’s temporary.
“The opportunity mirrors the early days of electronic trading,” Tan reflects. “Those who understood positioning created generational wealth. We’re seeing the same pattern in digital assets, but with greater potential.”
The difference is democratization. Electronic trading benefited relatively few institutional players. DeFi can benefit anyone with internet access and willingness to learn systematic methodology.
For thousands of investors who’ve adopted this approach, the question isn’t whether DeFi will outperform traditional markets—it’s how quickly they can scale positions before institutional adoption whittles current advantages.
“When I realized retail investors were making the same mistakes I saw institutional clients make, I knew DeFi needed a systematic approach,” Tan concludes. “The difference is that now we can provide that to anyone, not just the ultra-wealthy.”
That’s the revolution. Not just superior returns, but democratized access to wealth-creation tools and opportunities.
The question remains: what will you do with this information?
