🎙 The latest episode of DAO or Never is out! In it, we hear from web3 anthropologist, evangelist, investor, author, and founder: the inspired See Eun Ha. See Eun shares his experience building nonce, an open (re)source co-living and co-working community, and insights acquired while writing The DAO Book. Also available on Apple and Spotify.
📱 In the midst of the current crypto slide - which we’re not freaking out about - one web3 project is swimming upstream. Nouns DAO is having a bit of a moment, likely fueled by its user-friendly debut onto a major web2 platform: the app store. Is it treachery or is it inspired?
💸 DeFi-focused startup and DAO community management platform, Commonwealth, raised $20 million in its latest funding round. It was one of several successful raises - and bets on web3’s promise and potential - announced over the past few days.
🌶 Formed in the spirit and vision of DAOs, OG DAO-builder MetaCartel Ventures is launching Hydra Ventures DAO, an investment DAO that will incubate an ecosystem of investment DAOs. It’s very meta.
⏩ Hybrid blockchain platform Waves Enterprise announced it is becoming a DAO and going open source, thus decentralizing the company’s power, jurisdiction, and management. Having been foundational to some of the largest enterprise blockchain implementations worldwide, kudos to Waves for putting their money where their mouth is. 👏🏼
