Hats ProtocolHats Modules: A New Era for Programmable Organizations
TL;DRHats Modules are programmable extensions for rolesModules can be connected to hats to expand their functionality, such as automatic granting/revocation and activation/deactivation based on specific conditionsAny builder can create their own module, plug it into their own hats tree permissionlessly, and even make it available in any app that supports the Hats Modules RegistryAny app can also tap into the Hats Modules infrastructure to offer these same module options to their end-usersThe ...
Hats ProtocolStructure Without Capture
How we can delegate roles and authorities to get things done without recreating the entrenched power structures of traditional organizations The content of this post was originally presented by @davehrlichman as a talk at ETHDenver 2023, linked here. Published with many thanks to @spengrah and @nintnick for their contributions and valuable feedback that greatly improved this talk.Getting Things Done in Non-Hierarchical OrganizationsDAOs (decentralized autonomous organizations) could be amazin...

Humanity is on the precipice of a new paradigm for coordination, and DAOs are leading the way in creating new mechanisms for people to share resources and power as they pursue their common goals.
DAOs could be amazing. But governance is hard. Today, DAOs are making tradeoffs between decentralization and effectiveness. What they’re missing is a familiar piece of organizational infrastructure: roles.
We believe that a DAO-native way of delegating and revoking roles, responsibilities, and authorities is the next upgrade for DAOs that will solve this dilemma. DAOs no longer have to choose: we can get things done at scale while embodying the values of decentralization and autonomy.
DAOs who use Hats will:
Delegate authorities to individuals while retaining ultimate control by the collective,
Experience less pain and administrative costs associated with managing contributors and transferring authorities from one person or team to another,
Effectively hold contributors accountable to their commitments,
Clearly understand what’s actually happening across the DAO at any point in time, including where any gaps exist.
Contributors who wear Hats will:
Feel clear and confident in executing their roles,
Instantly have all the authorities they need to do their work (e.g., discord role, wiki admin rights, multisig signer, twitter access, etc.),
Know who to go to for important information or decisions,
Understand which roles are not yet fulfilled that they could be eligible for.
To use Hats and learn more about how it works, check out the open-source repo on Github or connect with us here.
