2/ Wyomingâs new law will enable blockchain projects to operate within the bounds of applicable laws without compromising their decentralization. It also keeps them permissionless. This is a major breakthrough.

3/ Critically, the bill solves three key challenges DAOs face: 1ď¸âŁ It gives them legal existence, enabling them to contract with third parties; 2ď¸âŁ It enables them to pay taxes; and 3ď¸âŁ It provides limited liability from the actions of other members.

4/ The DUNA solves these challenges without exposing consumers to additional risks. Anyone building a consumer-facing application on top of a blockchain network, like a social media app, would continue to use traditional entity forms.

5/ And even though itâs called a ânonprofit association,â the DUNA is able to both engage in profit making activities and pay reasonable compensation to DUNA members for any services provided to its ecosystem. This unlocks a huge design space for protocol economic models.
