This week in DAOs - Jul 28, 2022
A roundup of the most exciting developments in the DAO space.
🎙 In the latest episode of DAO or Never we take a deeper look into recent highlights from the DAO world. We discuss the value of Metagov's research on DAO constitutions, try out a web3-native blogging platform geared towards DAOs with multiple contributors, and dissect the change in philosophy that Protocol Guild’s Moloch DAO grant proposal represents. Also on the docket: web3 interoperability and approaches to solving proposal fatigue. Available on Apple and Spotify.
🚀 MoonDAO members have chosen Coby Cotton to be the first amongst them to go to space. More important than the who, is the how (sorry, Coby). In less than a year, MoonDAO has provided a tangible example of how a group of individuals, united by a dream, can make big things happen. What shall we tackle next?
🗳 There are approximately 100 days until the US General Election and it is thrilling to see the power of DAOs being used to facilitate a world that is truly for the people, by the people. We love how ChoiceDAO is using web3 for good. Godspeed.
🌈 Lofty aspirations can often benefit from a little self-awareness. Other Internet and Orca Protocol teamed up to survey active DAOists to understand current challenges in decentralized governance. It’s a must read for anyone in web3 with hopes of creating or contributing to a better place.
🗣 In the vein of learning from the past, MCON wants you to present your stories of bad DAO governance. Keep it classy, people.
