daos

One of the main design criteria for DAOs is that their governance must lead to divergence in powers. If the design is convergent — for example continuous accumulation of power by specific parties —, eventually this means stagnation and then death.

There are stages different DAOs can go through. 

The founding stage will likely be a lot of accumulation by the same people. 

But there has to be a transition point where power diverges and that's the true test of the initial contributors' commitment to decentralization.

Most have yet to see this stage.

Oh I don’t think that’s what I’m trying to say. Here’s another take: Any system that attempts to reach a specific state (eg complete distribution of goods in equal manner or complete consolidation, or any specific in between) is convergent. Divergent means it does not reach a specific state (no known limit)

What are the goals of said DAO in this case? And on what time horizon are you thinking?

Theoretically I agree, but I’m having a hard time coming up with examples where this has actually played out.

Feels like founder-led publicly traded co’s tell a different story?
