Decentralized Autonomous Organizations (DAOs): Revolutionizing Governance on Ethereum
What is a DAO?
A DAO is a digital organization on Ethereum, governed by smart contracts and driven by token-holding members. In 2023, over 12,000 DAOs were managing more than $20 billion, promoting transparent and decentralized decision-making.
The Rise of DAOs on Ethereum
Ethereum has been the leading platform for the creation and operation of DAOs, thanks to its robust smart contract capabilities. Some key milestones in the rise of DAOs include:
- The DAO- 2016: Raised over $150M in Ether but faced challenges due to a security flaw, sparking interest in decentralized governance.
- 2021 DAO Boom: DAOs surged, with over 4,000 managing $10B+ in assets by year-end, reflecting growing confidence in decentralized governance.
- DeFi DAOs: Major DeFi protocols like Uniswap, Aave, and MakerDAO are governed by DAOs. As of 2023, Uniswap's DAO controls a $3B+ treasury, showcasing the scale of decentralized finance. 1 reply
