INSIGHT

Modular DAOs

  • DAOs are currently monolithic, with token-weighted governance deciding every decision, causing apathy.
  • Modular DAOs, like modular blockchains, are the next frontier, enabling compartmentalized decision-making.
INSIGHT

Trustware vs. Socialware

  • DAOs can leverage blockchain's trust layer to improve human coordination, scaling trust within organizations.
  • "Trustware" uses digitized trust centers (e.g., governor contract) to minimize reliance on human coordination, unlike traditional orgs.
ANECDOTE

The Governor Contract's Impact

  • The Compound Governor contract, a primitive for token-weighted voting, became the standard for DAO governance.
  • This led to issues like whale dominance and voter apathy, highlighting the need for improved governance processes.
