Summary

Decentralized Law is a project team with strong connections to the Legal Guild. Cumulatively, it is BanklessDAO’s most-viewed newsletter, garnering the highest number of new subscriptions and shares, and it continues to break ground in terms of format, quality of presentation, and reach.

In Season 6, Decentralized Law will launch a website for our articles and interviews, which will be searchable by subject keywords. There will also be some game-changing functionality built into the website — to be revealed. The continued focus in Season 6 will be to publish a best-in-class crypto-legal newsletter while using that content and our new website/brand to attract advertisers. We aim to begin earning revenue, putting us on the path to project self-sufficiency.
