DAOs and onchain orgs, it's time to accelerate. Govern at startup speed.
Nounish DAOs: A Deeper Look
Nounish DAOs: Very OG, Very Base(d) Nouns have inspired a lot of Nounish DAOs. By our recent count in Map the Nounsverse, we’re tracking several dozen, including 78 (!!) on Nouns Builder. Today, we’re looking at eight of the most prominent Nounish DAOs and breaking down their governance, treasuries, and voting details. Shoutout to all the great data from Nouns Builder that helped us put together this research piece. tl;drWe included Lil’ Nouns, Builder DAO, Public Nouns, Yellow Collective, Pu...

Map the Nounsverse ⌐◨-◨
In celebration of Nouns’ 3rd Nouniversary and Decent DAO’s candidate to improve post-proposal accountability, we present Map the Nounsverse, an open-source, illustrated family tree of all Nouns communities, projects, and subcultures.Foreword: “I looked at 700+ Nouns communities and nearly 600 proposals. Here’s what it taught me about B2B SaaS…”I don’t mean to give you the whole backstory of the recipe, but Nouns have had me in a trance for the past few months. I started learning about Nouns l...

DAO or DINO? Quantifying Onchain Org Decentralization
Decentralization has been one of, if not the biggest promise of blockchain. Most of the technological progress made in the space is essentially geared to remove middle-men and democratize finance, payments, collaboration and participation. However, there is more to decentralizing a system than just good code. In the end, it’s still people who have to ensure it runs properly. This is effectively where DAOs and their structures start to matter. One would think that, since it’s already in the na...

DAOs Must Accelerate Onchain Now: Govern at Startup Speed (or ngmi)
Decent DAO is rebranding to reflect our exclusive focus on the role DAO governance plays in advancing crypto. For the past two years, we’ve been building Decent (previously Fractal), a DAO application that empowers onchain orgs to govern at startup speed. We believe now is the ideal time for onchain orgs to accelerate their decentralization. In fact, it’s critical to protect innovation. In the process of decentralizing our own org, we’ve learned lessons that are embedded in what we’ve built– ...

Not the Votes You're Looking For 👋🏾: DAOs and Voter Incentive (Bribe) Markets
Now That’s a Term I’ve Not Heard in a Long Time…a Long Time. Crypto is all about transparency and decentralization, right? One would think that bribing would have no place in such a world. However, it might just be precisely the reason why bribing has grown so much over the past years. “Bribe” has a negative connotation to it, mostly meaning that an individual dishonestly obtains a service or product through financial means. In crypto, however, most protocols and activities are centered aroun...
