Prefiguring post-capitalist work with DAOs

For this week's episode I spoke to Ori Shimony (@orishim),  co-founder of dOrg, a full-stack Web3 development collective. dOrg is incredibly interesting because it is run similarly to a worker-owned cooperative but functions as a DAO while also being at the forefront of building some of the most cutting-edge crypto platforms and products.

During the interview we spoke about his experience in starting dOrg with cooperative principles in mind as a DAO, how DAOs should learn from radical historical movements, and how working in DAOs today gives a potential peek into how work could look like under a post-capitalism. We also talked about the process of turning dOrg into the first legally recognized DAO.
