@b3nnn
great question! An important similarity is that people are generally values aligned between both. Painting companies as the "enemy" of DAOs is naive and unhelpful.. both generally have an optimistic worldview

Differences are maybe not that surprising but one important one is that most people can work at companies and (today) most people can't work at DAOs. DAOs attract and need a certain type of person. One day I hope they are for everyone but realistically a startup company is a better place to get similar experiences

with can't work you mean legally or structurally? I feel like DAOs are like NGOs you have to truely be "blind" for the cause or a contractor to pull through all the overhead that exists (governance, community support, PR, navigate legal without company framework)

Yes there's all the extra complexity and overhead but I think most people can't work in a DAO because the guardrails around your own growth just don't exist. A startup has more clarity that a lot of DAOs where you can learn about impact and responsibility without it being a darwinian experiment
