Utopia: The Future of Coordination
Announcing our $23M Series A led by ParadigmAs the name suggests, Utopia Labs embodies the pursuit of the ideal. We’re leveraging technology to achieve better collaboration in the Web3 economy, where DAOs hold the potential to break down geographic and digital barriers and usher in a new era of decentralized coordination. Since we launched Utopia last year, we’ve partnered and built alongside leading crypto-native organizations including OlympusDAO, Lido, Friends with Benefits, Yield Guild Ga...

Why should organizations run on the blockchain?
As transaction costs go to near zero and coordination costs continue to increase, organizations that originate ten years from now will run on blockchains as their primary way of transferring value. There are two fundamental reasons why I believe this:1. Blockchains are the most efficient method of transferring value.Organizations that operate on the blockchain run faster and cheaper than traditional financial rails. This is because, unlike conventional financial operations, working off the bl...

Welcome to a wider UtopiaUtopia has consistently prioritized streamlining payments and optimizing workflows for crypto organizations. However, our vision extends further as we recognize the potential of our tools to address the challenges faced by individual EOA wallet users in the broader market. We believe in enabling more people in the crypto space to seamlessly integrate with traditional payment systems, bringing the value of blockchain technology into their everyday work and life.

Today we’re excited to announce we’re launching on Avalanche to support the growing community of DAOs and projects on the chain.
Avalanche has been a leader in alternative chains since its launch in late 2020. It has a vibrant community of projects and supporters; who are not only crypto native but also institutional. The benefits of increased speed, efficiency, and innovative subnets make it an attractive option for web3 teams and companies making the transition from web2 to web3.
And Utopia is excited to support amazing DAOs and crypto-enabled organizations no matter where they live!

Avalanche is a blockchain that combines scaling capabilities and quick confirmation times through its Avalanche Consensus Protocol. While being, its own blockchain Avalanche is also EVM compatible meaning applications built solidity smart contracts can still be deployed on Avalanche as well.
Avalanche is also known for its innovative subnet technology; Avalanche is made of 3 main blockchains

is the chain that handles most of the volume including DeFi and NFTs.
is used for the minting, distribution, receiving, and swapping of digital assets
lets users stake $AVAX as validators and also create subnets.
Inspired by sharding, subnets are the preferred scaling solution for Avalanche. Subnets, or subnetworks, allow projects to stake $AVAX to create their L1 or L2 blockchains. These blockchains are then secured by a dynamic set of validators, working together to achieve a consensus.
This innovation allows for projects to have all the benefits of blockchain combined with the scalability needed for many projects to create L1 ones or L2s specifically for their needs.
Avalanche is home to many amazing DAOs and crypto projects; two of the amazing communities that inspired us to launch on Avalanche are Pangolin DAO and Craba DAO

Pangolin is community-driven decentralized exchange for Avalanche and Ethereum assets with fast settlement, low transaction fees, and a democratic distribution–powered by Avalanche.
Why Pangolin chose Avalanche:
“I love Avax because of its groundbreaking consensus. With the advent of subnets we are now witnessing the birth of a new economic landscape that will allow the next innovations in the progression of web3 technology” - Justin from Pangolin

CrabaDAO is a GameFi/DeFi collective formed around the undersea world of fighting hermit-crabs, Crabada. The main focus of the group is to offer players more accessibility into Crabada while providing gameplay services that will maximize returns, grow the game’s community, and support the ecosystem and tokenomics of the game.
Why Craba chose Avalanche:
“We love AVAX because the community is great and because the growing network maintains cheap and fast gas fees allowing great projects including P2E”
What Craba excites about the DAO community on Craba:
“With the lower gas fees, AVAX brings much lower barrier to entries for DAOs. The gas fees in other networks can often make it not worth it to even join lower cost DAOs. You often see prices of DAO memberships starting at $1,000 outside of AVAX.
In this ecosystem, gas is so minimal it is almost no concern for even the lowest priced NFTs or transactions we chose AVAX because we can offer our membership at under $200 USD without the transaction gas costing $75 or more in some occasions”
Using multichain on Utopia is the same experience as eth-mainnet with no lessened functionality!!! Any DAO with a Gnosis Safe can use our full suite of features!

Avalanche DAOs can create recurring and 1-time payments on Utopia and pay them out in less than 2 clicks. These two clicks create a transaction through their Gnosis SAFE paying the team’s recurring compensation.
Once the transaction is created, DAO multi-sig holders sign and execute the payment on Utopia without any gas! Our signing page lets multi-sig holders get a clearer picture of their Gnosis transactions and avoid paying gas individually.
To avoid back-and-forth messages, a Utopia payment request link can be shared with the community. Individuals expecting payment can submit how much they should be paid along with information on the context of the payment.
DAOs can track and download their payment history - giving them a detailed breakdown of the DAO’s expenses.
In may, Utopia will have a bookkeeping feature that will allow Avalanche DAOs to categorize and get analytics on all their DAO’s transactions.
