At this time we've chosen to forgo charging fees for Coordinape and instead, we're experimenting with funding our DAO through donations. As part of this experiment, Coordinape will (optionally) become part of everyone's circles as a participant.

Web3 promises to bring individuals together to achieve shared goals and share the benefits. It’s a beautiful vision. But getting diverse groups of empowered people working together harmoniously to get things done is no small undertaking.

In this conversation, we delve into what DAOs are and why the future lies in this framework. We also talk about the connection between ownership and decision making, striving for a ‘trustless’ infrastructure, why we might not see companies like Apple or Google ‘go DAO’ soon, the role of six-person teams — and why everyone working on DAOs are in essence collaborating on a creating a greater pie.

In today’s show Brandon speaks with Zach Anderson, a cofounder of both Converge and Coordinape – the latter of which is one of the best ways for DAOs to distribute earnings amongst a team of contributors. We discuss how Coordinape can help DAOs reflect on what they are prioritizing by looking at where allocations are going -- and how this can help facilitate difficult conversations when that compensation isn’t in line with the goals of the DAO.

Coordinape allows DAO contributors to collectively reward each other as an alternate—and more elegant—means of compensating work & value. Trach has been on a podcast circuit lately, cruising through big cerebral topics orbiting DAO coordination and biomimicry.—addressing technology and civilization from a biological perspective is underrated. How do we shift from a ‘command & control’ approach to ‘sense & respond’? How can we take lessons from nature and plug them into novel systems powered by technology?
