linksHow to Use Asana to Work Asynchronously
Asana is a task-tracking and project-planning system. It helps us coordinate our efforts so that we can accomplish more as a team than we can on our own. It also sets us up to work asynchronously, which is important for team sustainability. Asana is non-opinionated, meaning it doesn’t enforce a certain workflow. It’s essentially a bunch of TODO lists with linkages between tasks. This means that each team can set up their own, custom workflow. Here’s a simple example:List view on the left, Boa...

The BanklessDAO Grants Committee is one of the most central and visible groups in the DAO, and it’s also one of the least understood. During my time as the Grants Committee Lead in Season 4 and 5, I presided over some of the biggest ever changes to our grants processes. These changes resulted in a 5.8M BANK savings/deferral in S4, increased accountability via recorded project KPIs in S4 and S5, and strong guidance for Guilds/Departments in S6. By all accounts, these changes have been successf...

Recently, Hiro Kennelly shared his experience of starting in the DAOverse. It was a familiar tale of finding his passion, putting his whole soul into it, and finding himself empty at the end. Hiro’s tale is familiar to almost everyone; 9 of 10 people have experienced burnout in their lives, and 1 in 4 are suffering through it now. It’s the sinking feeling of the mountain of tasks looming behind you as you desperately try to finish the one in front of you. It’s the realization that no matter h...

To be bankless is to seek freedom. Freedom to do what you want to do — to be who you want to be. Throughout history, people have hoisted the black flag in the face of authoritarian rule. The black flag is a declaration of our intent to be free. It is a symbol of our resolve.
BanklessDAO was created to steward the bankless movement. We fly the black flag as a beacon for all freedom seekers; to create a space for us to gather and grow.
We welcome all. Country, creed, age, language, race, religion, gender, and everything else are secondary to our purpose. As long as you seek freedom, BanklessDAO welcomes you.
We teach our ways. With every person taught, we swell our ranks. Our members are a rising tide, and a rising tide lifts all ships.
We are relentless. Step by step, we pursue our mission. Brick by brick, we build the means for others to follow. When we fail, we take stock, make adjustments, and keep moving forward.
We value contribution. Large or small, each contribution is a step closer to freedom. Contribution is BanklessDAO’s true currency.
We are strong together. Even when we can stand alone, we stand together. When one of us falls, another steps up to carry the banner. When one of us flies, we all soar.
To be bankless isn’t a goal, it’s a way of life. It is the decisions you make every day towards self-sovereignty. Slow or fast, as long as you move towards freedom, you are bankless.
And if you are bankless, you fly the black flag. As a beacon. As a symbol. As a reminder. The black flag is the pursuit of freedom, and the bankless always seek to live free.
We are the black flag. Let’s fly! 🏴
