How To Develop A Bounty Program
This post was written by Kagami. Thanks to DAO Masters contributors David Burt, Andi Schuster, and Maryam for their research, as well as Nelson for their edits and revisions! Bounty programs unlock the power of decentralized work for DAOs. Bounties are tasks and projects that a DAO shares with its contributors and community to complete. These tasks may range from document translations and meeting notes to building products on top of Layer 2 chains like Optimism and Polygon. DAOs are discoveri...

DAO Masters S3: Retrospective & Learnings
OverviewIntroductionAs we reached the end of S3, the DMGs came together to talk about what DAO Masters worked on, what went well, what we learned, and what we think we should do differently next season. What follows is a collection of our thoughts, which we hope is beneficial for both our community and the broader DAO ecosystem! We’ve split it into a summary and a more detailed look into projects and learnings. The former is a great place to understand what we’ve been doing and what we learne...

4 Key Lessons About Decentralisation in DAOs
Written by White Flamingo, with input and editing from DAOlan, Willy Wonka, Jocelyn Hsu, and Tyler Whittle The fiery debates around community decentralisation continue to burn in the furnace of the DAO ecosystem. DAOs aren’t (yet) decentralised. While there are some useful and widely-adopted frameworks and playbooks for community decentralisation, there is no one-size fits all approach. A central reason for this is because DAOs are not fully autonomous: they require people to create decision-...

7 Best Practices for DAO Season Planning
Written by Andi Schuster and White Flamingo, with input and editing from Phil H, Carllyn Yuvienco, Jocelyn Hsu, and Tyler Whittle As DAOs have grown and scaled in size over the past couple years, a natural partitioning has occurred. DAO scaling challenges have not only resulted in the establishment of working groups and talent pools to handle particular projects, but also created sub-DAOs or guilds in many of these organisations (e.g. Moloch, Yearn, Bankless, Friends with Benefits). To suppor...

The Challenges of Community and Culture in DAOs
Written by Zvi Band, with input and editing from DAO Masters contributors Carllyn Yuvienco, Behzod Sirjani, Jocelyn Hsu, and Tyler Whittle The vision for DAOs spans traditional corporate structures and communities. To achieve success, they must navigate both how to establish a thriving culture and how to find a viable business model. DAOs have the opportunity—and responsibility—to build the community first, which forms the layers upon which solutions for long-term viability can emerge. The be...
