This is a treasure chest: it contains the only copy of the private key to an ETH wallet, stamped into a sheet of metal. Over time, we will release clues about the location of this chest. Here is the first one: it's buried somewhere in the Texas Hill Country. So what's in the wallet? To start, we've put a 1/1 NFT treasure inside, created by Cabin DAO collaborators @DugDaniels and @mel_being: Buried Treasure But what makes this treasure chest special is that, even though it'...

How to DAO 301: Contributor Rewards
Welcome to the third deep dive on how we are building Cabin. We’ve aggregated everything we know about reward design from discussions with multiple DAOs, and combined that with information about compensation in traditional businesses. As a DAO contributor, you can use this guide to help understand what options you have. As a DAO community engineer, you can use this document to design general guidance for your community. There’s also benchmarks in the Appendix. This article is for regular cont...

A brief history of decentralized cities and centralized states
There’s only two ways to advance civilization: bundling and unbundling Jim Barksdale, more-or-lessOnce in a while, in the long arc of civilization, a new set of coordination technologies come along and change everything. By allowing small groups of humans to better cooperate in the collective management of resources, these technologies redefine power structures and lay the bedrock of a new civilizational era.

This week, Julia Lipton (@JuliaLipton) joins our host Jackson Steger to talk about Awesome People Ventures, and how her quest to share the upside from those investments led her down the path that eventually formed DAO Masters, which is focused on investigating DAO tooling and sharing their findings.
Julia and Jackson discuss the legal ambiguity surrounding tokens, the obstacles facing DAOs today, inflationary governance tokens, and instilling a sense of ownership within a community. Shadman Uddin from Cabin then joins the pod to talk about challenges around diversity, equity, and inclusion (DEI) in web3, and what we can do to solve them.
Tools are key to any organization’s success. See which ones Cabin is using (and building!) in our litepaper, and you’ll also get our weekly newsletter to see what we’re doing and how you can get involved.

Campfire is a limited series podcast translating the jargon of DAOs into plain English to help listeners understand how Decentralized Autonomous Organizations achieve wildly ambitious and creative goals. Each week, host Jackson Steger is joined by different DAO leaders and operators to help explain the tactics, traditions, and goals of the different online communities.
