History solved coordination failures w kings & guns. The frontier is solving them with code & trust.

The easiest book to grasp DAO in practice — our top recommendation! 📖 In January 2025, How to DAO: Mastering the Future of Internet Coordination was released — arguably the first serious attempt to systematically explain how to build and run a DAO 🗂 The authors are @owocki (co-founder of Gitcoin DAO) and @PuncarH2D (Web3 researcher and practitioner). Not theorists, but people who have actually launched and managed DAO projects From the book you’ll learn: 1️⃣ why Web3 needs DAOs and how they differ from traditional companies 2️⃣ how to design governance architecture and avoid chaos 3️⃣ what roles and mechanics are essential inside a DAO, and how voting works 4️⃣ all about the Pre-DAO and Post-DAO stages (when a project is still founder-led vs. when it’s time to decentralize) 5️⃣ real-world DAO practices and common mistakes It’s a ~300-page practical guide already endorsed by names @dtapscott (author of the bestseller Blockchain Revolution, one of the most cited digital economy researchers) and @sandeepnailwal (Polygon co-founder) ✍️ If you want a deeper understanding of how DAOs really work, this book is a perfect place to start

Onchain finance is shifting from needing to click buttons to transact to automated flows: think DCA, stop-loss, and portfolio rebalancing @zimm0x on how money can now move in onchain applications without a user needing to tap “confirm” 🎙️ @HowToDAObook

Rather than competing with crypto, global payment leaders are beginning to integrate stablecoin infra into their products @zimm0x discussed this major fintech shift on the @HowToDAObook podcast 👇
Stablecoins have already surpassed Visa and Mastercard in transaction volume. The future isn’t about competition — it’s about integration. Soon, Visa and Mastercard will shift much of their volume to stablecoins, fueling on-chain growth.

It's interesting how Visa was created with decentralist ideals so similar to those that gave rise to modern DAOs, and yet today many of us perceive it as extractive and/or oppressive. Certainly some good insights to learn from there.
Dee Hock on the founding of Visa in his work "Chaordic Organization". Visa was perhaps the first successful case of a permissionless platform with decentralized governance and ownership. Many lessons to be learned here half a century later for crypto networks.

maybe I'm overreacting but yesterday I found a copy of @HowToDAObook at my public suburban library and now I'm wondering who else in my quiet suburb is secretly building 🤔

My thanks to both @HowToDAObook and @AcademyPolkadot (PBA-X) – a solid combo for a grounding in decentralised governance. Both have new cohorts starting soon

100% this... And a counter point: Ethereum Gas Limit is determined by the ETH Node runners in a very nice DAO-y way... There are a lot of DAO successes if you know where to look.
DAOs have failed is a lazy, nihilistic take. It's basically saying we should never experiment with coordination because we're so good at it. Lol, r u serious????

Dropping something for the streets…$NEAR Plays nearplays.com, an open-source repository tracking all upcoming token launches in the @NEARProtocol ecosystem! Since announcing the initial 12 tokens for NEAR Token Season, we've seen incredible interest from projects wanting to launch on NEAR + Intents & teams who were launching and we didn’t know about - especially after I teased my fav mystery tokens coming soon! 👀 So had to make a resource anyone can contribute to... the eco is becoming too popping to stay on top of everything, even for me. 📋 Follow all projects launching here: xitter.cf/i/lists/19455121946298… 🔥 ALPHA RECAP: The NEAR Intents team is building a launchpad enabling projects to raise funds in ANY token, capturing liquidity across Solana, Base, ETH, NEAR, and other chains. (But if you were building on Intents, you'd already know this 😉) 📅 UPCOMING LAUNCHES: @intellex_xyz - Infrastructure for AI agent interoperability across blockchains, enterprises, and individuals. Launching in Q3 2025 via Intents Launchpad with a fixed price or auction sale. @consumerfi - Unifies micro-tasks, premium data marketplace, and on-chain agent launchpad for verified workers.

If you are looking to launch a token during the biggest bull market of all time, capture liquidity from all chains, and build a useful product to secure our user-owned internet future, hit me up or contact anyone on the NEAR team.

My response to AI 2027: vitalik.eth.limo/general/202… The AI 2027 post is high quality, I encourage people to read it at ai-2027.com/ I argue a misaligned AI will not be able to win nearly as easily as the AI 2027 scenario assumes, because it greatly underrates our ability to protect ourselves, especially given the (pretty magical) technologies that the authors admit will be available in 2029 in their scenario.
