Building the Trust Layer Where AI and Blockchain Meet
Cat Bonar is CEO of Block Reign, where she leads at the intersection of blockchain, Web3 innovation, and enterprise growth. She brings over 20 years of leadership experience spanning healthcare, medical billing, and regulatory compliance, and has held C-suite roles across both private and public companies, driving strategy, operations, and compliance through periods of rapid growth and technological transformation.
Today she is guiding Block Reign through its PCAOB audit process while the company engages in active discussions with governments internationally to bring blockchain into public-sector protocols and programs. A named inventor herself, she holds a U.S. design patent for an FDA medical device to treat sleep apnea in adults. From FDA approvals and clinical trials to decentralized ecosystems, she has built companies, trained thousands, advised DAOs, and developed compliance strategies that scale alongside innovation.
At Block Reign, which integrates blockchain and AI, Cat helps businesses, developers, and innovators bring everyday products and services on-chain — delivering utility-based digital rewards and bridging compliance with real Web3 adoption, without the complexity or speculation the space is known for.
