You're reading State of the DAOs, the high-signal low-noise newsletter for understanding DAOs.
gm and welcome to State of the DAOs!
At BanklessDAO we believe that DAOs are the future of work. These decentralized, global communities give you an opportunity to explore your freedom with purpose and intention, charting your professional life as you see fit.
But working in DAOs is not easy, in can be downright scary in this type of market.
This week, Kaf shows us the essential skills we need to thrive in this environment. Having spent the past year working in DAOs, he shares the lessons he has learned along the way. As explorers, builders, and dreamers, these are the skills you need to succeed.
Next, we feature an interview by the ImpactDAO study with Marco Barbosa, the founder of impactMarket. impactMarket is a platform for crowd-sourcing funds for those in need. As the world’s largest decentralized UBI program they have demonstrated that giving money directly to people in need is more impactful that central entities allocating it as they see fit. Marco describes how he thinks web3 is uniquely positioned to improve aid distribution, and how DAOs have the potential to give people the tools they need to prosper.
Finally, we share the TL;DR on some of the best DAO ecosystem takes and thought pieces, making it easy for you to cut through the noise and learn everything you need to know about the current state of the DAOs.
