When a DAO is evaluating new working groups, there’s one sound principle to keep in mind: form follows function. Each working group should be granted only enough power to achieve their established objective and key results.

Pods are Orca Protocol’s answer to the scaling problems that DAOs face. Pods are small working groups, usually centered around one expertise. In place of—or in addition to—one massive, centralized DAO treasury, each pod has its own multi-sig wallet that is controlled by the pod members. So pods can be thought of as mini-DAOs within a larger DAO.
