Stanford BioE 60: Beyond Bitcoin - Decentralized Autonomous Organizations (DAOs)

A decentralized autonomous organization (DAO) is a group organized around a mission that coordinates through a shared set of rules enforced on a blockchain. DAOs are currently a critical part of major DeFi protocols, but are on their way to becoming the tech stack for a truly democratic world. In this lecture presented at Stanford's BioE60 Beyond Bitcoin course, Ron Boger (https://twitter.com/ronboger) and Ori Shimony (https://twitter.com/orishim) of dOrg present an overview on DAOs. The lecture covers what DAOs are, the history, current use, and potential future applications.00:00 Intro00:20 DAO 10107:03 History of DAOs18:37 DAOs Today20:49 DAOs of Tomorrow26:24 Q&ARESOURCES - https://linda.mirror.xyz/Vh8K4leCGEO06_qSGx-vS5lvgUqhqkCz9ut81WwCP2o - https://daobase.org/what-can-we-do-with-a-dao-in-2020 - https://blog.ethereum.org/2014/05/06/daos-dacs-das-and-more-an-incomplete-terminology-guide - https://aragon.org/dao - https://daorushweek.com - https://deepdao.io - https://daohaus.clubEXAMPLE DAOs - https://molochdao.com - https://www.thelao.io - https://compound.finance/governance - https://app.nexusmutual.io - https://1hive.org - https://dao.decentraland.org--- dOrg is an autonomous collective of engineers, designers, and other web3 specialists. We build tools that empower people to self-organize.We envision a future where power is radically decentralized – people can easily coordinate and transact without intermediaries; institutions are transparent and responsive to the needs of their constituents; self-governing collectives outcompete coercive monopolies; wealth is fairly distributed, and machines handle the boring work while humans focus on meaningful pursuits.We believe that web3 will be a key part of this future and we’re here to build it.Find us on:Discord: https://discord.gg/dorgTwitter: bit.ly/3wJV0W2 LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/company/28435766/ Blog: https://blog.dorg.tech/Web: bit.ly/3wKWJu7#web3 #dao #decentralized
