Vitalik Buterin

The main challenge with crypto regulation (esp in the US) has always been this phenomenon where if you do something useless, or something where you're asking people to give you money in exchange for vague references to potential returns at best, you are free and clear, but if you try to give your customers a clear story of where returns come from, and promises about what rights they have, then you're screwed because you're "a security". The incentive gradient that this "anarcho-tyranny" creates ends up worse for the space than either plain anarchy _or_ plain tyranny. I would much rather see us move to the opposite situation, where issuing a token _without_ giving a clear long-term story for why it will maintain or increase in economic value is the riskier thing, and if you _do_ give such a long-term story and follow basic best practices then you're safe. Actually getting to this will require good-faith engagement, both from regulators and from industry.

Oh man that's lovely in practice but then you have to change everyone's model. Massive headache Might be worth it, but having been inventing new models for years, I often suffer from not going with a traditional (even if dysfunctional) model. Originality needs to be strategic 🙃

the more reason to think through a lense of governance of self-directed agents as opposed to governance of machines

Had our kick-off for the @RnDAO fellowship today. Over the next 3 months I'll be working with some @ftwdao frens and researching a topic dear to my heart, with the kind support of RnDAO CoLab and Arbitrum. Research focus: how to go about building the best on-chain game for community-led capital allocation.

Swarm-DAOs would be - polycentric - open (capital, talent, and to a lesser extent IP and information) - most domains turned into platform capabilities (marketing/brand as a service to units, same for capital deployment, knowledge management, talent funnels, etc) We have a thesis coming out on this...

I don't separate the two, rather I think Swarm capabilities is what would give DAOs an advantage (potaeto potato) Swarming as the ability to form (autonomous) teams and rapidly aggregate teams to deliver more complex process/offerings. The organisation as a platform for collaboration innovation, Haier style

I'd say into swarms :) the future is not solopreneurs nor DAOs as we've known them (monolithic, direct or representative democracy)

Isn't that building a highway for money laundering and war financing?

Another thing that can help a lot is for the DAO to periodically define priorities for the grants. We have an AI (getharmoni.ca) that was designed for a large group to deliberate and find points of agreement (more effectively than vote or a forum). Something like that could be used to periodically define grant criteria

Maybe something in that direction could work?

We're developing a format for a research fellowship where fellows receive training in user research, market research (ensure they're not reinventing the wheel and create value), and first principles thinking too. Stipend payment are conditional on milestones for sharing progress publicly, so it's open source research
