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'...

It was an experiment in universal creator income, the physical manifestation of DAOs, and decentralized cities.

Our community grew around supporting these creators a...

If you look at the social DAO landscape, you’ll see communities with different social token models. Some, like FWB, use a fungible social token to gate community access. Many emerging PFP-based communities like BAYC use NFTs as the primary community gating mechanism. Whether fungible or non-fungible, social tokens in DAOs usually represent three different but overlapping roles:Economic valueGovernance rightsMembership & accessShould all three of these roles be represented by a single token?
