Stand with crypto
If you're looking for strong evidence that crypto is entering the mainstream, here it is:The cryptocurrency and banking industries are locked in a lobbying battle over digital tokens that yield annual payouts, a fight that threatens to derail legislation intended to bring crypto into mainstream finance. The two sides are clashing about what crypto firms call rewards, or annual payments to investors based on a percentage of their total holdings. They are commonly used for stablecoins, popular ...

This article was originally published on Medium on March 4th 2021. It has been republished here with minor updates for clarity.Decentralized governance systems empower token holders to direct and control underlying protocols. Unlike traditional corporate structures which rely partly on legal systems and reputation to ensure alignment, protocol governance is largely based on crypto economic safeguards and incentive mechanisms. While governance systems vary widely, the vast majority rely on vot...

Parameter Proposal Committees
This article was originally published on Medium on April 6th, 2021. It has been republished here with minor updates for clarity.Protocol governance is experiencing rapid innovation in several dimensions. But while novel technology (such as Compound’s governor alpha which we covered in our last blog post) often steals the spotlight, new coordination methods have huge potential to reshape the governance design space. Parameter proposal committees represent one such advance for protocols. They’v...

The Unicorn They're Treating Like a Pony
The consensus is forming fast. Nicky Sap's piece landed this week with a decisive verdict: "Even if the future of crypto is social, the future of social is clearly not crypto." Dan Romero announced Farcaster's pivot in December—wallet-first, trading infrastructure, "come for the tool, stay for the network." Two platforms, same retreat. The story seems settled: financialized social failed. I want to offer a different lens. Not because I think the consensus is wrong, but because I think it's in...

DAOs don't need CEOs. They need a mission.
This article was originally published on Medium on May 3rd, 2022 It has been republished here with minor updates for clarity.There was a hot take on Twitter a couple of weeks ago: “DAOs need CEOs,” the tweet read. The comments were full of mixed reviews — some dissented heavily, saying a single CEO is too centralized, while others felt that DAOs need more direction, which a centralized leader could provide. They’re both right. The desire for direction and unification in DAOs is warranted — th...

In a recent podcast, technology analyst Benedict Evans referred to DAOs as Distributed Autonomous Organizations. Initially, this seemed odd — did he incorrectly say “Distributed” for what is more commonly referred to as “Decentralized”, or did he intentionally use the terms synonymously? The more I thought about it, the more ...

Why DAOs Need Better Decentralized Identity Tools
This article was originally published on Medium on May 12th, 2022 It has been republished here with minor updates for clarity.DAOs are driven by their communities. But who is actually part of these communities? Today, individuals are represented by Ethereum addresses, but this approach has shortcomings. Ethereum addresses can be created costlessly and anonymously, which means many Ethereum addresses are often owned by the same individual. I argue that the ability to link off-chain and on-chai...
