I’m in the minority here, but I’m skeptical of the DAOs ability to successfully fund offchain software. - Funding for non-public goods software is a solved problem - Software gradually decays even when open source (does the DAO need to pay maintainers forever?) - Judging quality is by committee is suboptimal

- Completeness is non-binary (propdates helps with us) - How do you attract the best talent when funding competition is the norm? Compare this with funding something like onchain art: - ✅ Maintenance free (build once, lives forever) - ✅ Completeness is binary - ✅ Quantitatively judge success (# of mints)

Immutable protocols and onchain art swim with the current and work well with the DAO funding model But I’m all for experimentation. There’s always going to be some friction for onchain organizations to fund offchain activities This only gets easier by trying new things and learning from mistakes
