Luuk is a Curaçao-born, Netherlands-dwelling, self-proclaimed “DAOist”. Starting his career learning administrative philosophy, he quickly fell down the DAO rabbit hole looking for ways to put abstract concepts into action. He is passionate about building organizations that leverage the efficiency, transparency and decentralization of web3 infrastructure and apply them to real-world problems.

In collaboration with DAOstack, Luuk started CuraDAO, a community-driven, blockchain-powered social impact project that provides financial resources, support and knowledge to the community of Curaçao. He’s heavily involved with Kolectivo, PrimeDAO and the DAOist and is constantly looking for better ways to use blockchain to create regenerative systems that empower people and change the world. In this episode, Peth & Luuk discuss all things DAO, sustainable, regenerative and economic.

Some of the topics:

CuraDAI and token engineering
Regenerative economics
Tokenizing physical spaces
Stimulating and incentivizing environmental regeneration
Challenges associated with using crypto in Curaçao
Contributor compensation
Scaling technology
DAO-to-DAO collaboration

Peth & Luuk get in-depth on the origin story of PrimeDAO and its evolution as a collaborative project of DAOs sharing resources and working together to advance Open Finance. Luuk remarks that, “it’s the embodiment of this positive sum game mindset. We don’t try to build much from scratch but try to connect the pieces that otherwise wouldn’t be connected.”

The episode concludes emphasizing the value of working together to build the infrastructure that ultimately provides the opportunity to regenerate the Earth and create more space for us all to live freely and apply ourselves to our passions.
