Making a DAO Work

Blockchain technology allows people to share ideas, ownership, and records like never before. Amongst many exciting applications, these functions permit users to create synergetic, democratic organisations capable of doing much more than any other unincorporated form of association.

Referred to as Decentralised Autonomous Organisations (“DAOs”), as the name suggests, by design a DAO is intended to:

1. Avoid any form of centralised establishment, control, or governance; and

2. Empower all members to freely dictate the direction of the DAO by participating in DAO governance.

In the attached pdf, I provide a ‘warts and all’ overview of Decentralised Autonomous Organisations (“DAOs”); the characteristics of a DAO, benefits, pitfalls and the options available to overcome these.
