As the famous evolutionary biologist Richard Lewontin put it: “the organism is both the subject and the object of evolution.”
Linking these thoughts back to DAOs, I suspect we are now living in an age where decentralised internet communities that figure out how to organise themselves as an interdependent complex collective of diverse individuals will end up converging on better decisions. This is the next stage of social evolution. And as a consequence, these sorts of org... See more

attempt the most futile and also useful task in human history. Categorising things that grow organically, hold complexity and change very fast. ...had to do it to understand and map the territory. ... will change tomorrow but I hope it gives a template for you to partition and think about DAOs, while also understanding the in-between and the emerge...
