Minutes
Josh: Overview of the meeting format.
Intros
Carlos: Recently joined Aragon as lead developer.
Eike: Economist and lawyer, working on different startups, investment consultancy. Investments in ICOs. Thinking about how to apply marxist concepts of workers coops to have more decentralization in DAOs. Mostly interested in how to achieve real decentralization, human engagement in the organization, and the smart contracts are more of a nice feature rather than a necessity for DAOs. Working at an organization that has been tokenized, they have voting rights, very complicated, with rules that are only partially implemented in contracts.
Mittens: Hey daostar frenz! I'm mittens! Currently at work but was hoping to listen in if possible - My only dao experience is with ADAO, from Cardano, but have been trying to read and learn from all the content I can find from groups like DAOstar, SCRF, etc. and similarly relevant youtube/podcast information / groups.
Updates
Josh:
- EIP is almost approved.
- Looking for marketing lead and community engagement.
Luke:
- Still working on AIP. Working on on-chain representation to manage wallet.
- The flow for API auth (generating keys, address sig on metamask — all done, needs to jump on-chain).
- Josh: Luke, Isaac, and I are going to have a meeting with Jenny Fan (involve Mendez too) to imagine what the user flow for these pieces could be.
- Userflow in DAOHaus is good.
- James: Could post blogs at Dystopia Labs
- James: going to Crypto Commons Gathering and might present on DAOstar
- Zargham: Might be worth transitioning the meetings back to working groups.
- Google doc with current implementations (hitting the end points)
- Identify champions for new implementations
- Josh: we need to start working in more dedicated way to getting Aragon implementation setup.
- Carlos: Need to think more about how to list members could be trickier for us.
- Josh: Need to connect with Isaac to talk about technical details.
Discussion
- Cent: Has the scope of DAOstar expanded any over last month?
- Josh: Starting to research DAO proposals and thinking about how the standards we are developing could compliment them.
- Zargham: Are you making a distinction between things that are descriptive or prescriptive? Things are nascent at the moment.
- Zargham: Saying that people do this and so they should do this, then you create bad reinforcement loops. Description is good, but try not to imply that that’s how things will or should be.
- Josh: What if we published this as a episode 1 feature, that is more prescriptive that people can adopt. There is a slippery sloop towards prescription as you do descriptive work.
- Even if it is mildly descriptive, then it can steer the ecosystem.
- Z: You need descriptive to understand where you are. You use prescriptive to say what you would like to see. You use proscriptive to describe where you could go in the future.
- Z: There needs to be more thinking about organizational structures and how the tool kit gets applied.
- Eike: Are there any attempts to have calls or community discussion about where DAOs should go from economic, game theory, beaviour design, etc?
- Josh: DAOstar is focused on technical standards, but check out DAO Research Hub.
