Full-Time DAOs

The more templates we can create around DAO structures, the faster we will move as a whole. While we’ve reached an inflection point, we have a long way to go before DAOs function at scale.

So far, I have not figured this out. Getting paid in tokens is one thing, finding ways to make them productive and sustainable is another.

My challenge is finding productive ways to put those tokens to work so that I can sustain myself without having to liquidate tokens.

My goal is to eliminate USD-denominated contracts to entirely token-based compensation.

I will not be receiving any payment in fiat. Only on-chain assets. This may include ETH and USDC, but it will generally be represented in governance tokens.

Silicon Valley has known about the ownership secret for a long time: to get the best talent in the world to work for your startup, you need to offer equity. DAOs are the newest evolution of this Ownership Economy.

Being full-time DAOs means I’m kissing traditional compensation structures goodbye. No salary, no healthcare benefits, no 401k - just ownership. Or, more specifically, tokens.
