Decision hygiene - a guide
TL;DR:This is a document I prepared for personal use as I work to become a better steward of DAOs in part due to my work as an operator at Wildfire, an emerging metagovernance DAO already active across the web3 landscape. I hope to receive feedback and to contribute to some standardization of approaches, thereby enabling us all to spend less time wondering about approaches and more time building better products and communities. Who knows - maybe this will help grow a momement towards Decision...

The Funding Cooperative DAO: unleashing the collective power of founders
TL;DR - founders need to come together to balance power dynamics with sources of capital and to make real the world we all imagine. We can do that through some basic DeFi applied to DAO formation - instead of “just” creating a token to govern one DAO, what if we linked arms and built a token and a DAO amongst many of us? How could this pattern become a primitive used by many web3 communities to balance the forces, increase founder support and diversification, and fund the growth of a much lar...

Wen bootstrap DAO? - trying out DAO tooling & NFT community gates
In late 2021 I joined wagmas, a discord discussing forming a new DAO intended as a hype-free space for web 3 adoption - in support of the web3summit. I gravitated to researching the underlying technology and architectures and set out to collaboratively build in public an understanding of what software and services could relatively easily help us to form a DAO. I quickly found that the adoption of web3 primitives, and their development, are each progressing so quickly that I found it challengi...

Centralize to decentralize: web3 conference
I’m looking forward to the web 3 summit in May in San Diego. I’m helping to pull together a panel that will seek to compare community building in OpenSource communities with building communities in the world of web 3.Mirror mirrorPlease get in touch with me if you would like to suggest questions or participate in some other way, such as nominating a panelist. I don’t want to reinforce the gatekeeping so many are hoping that web 3 can help to address - and could really use your help and direct...
