Super Spicy Side of DAO Governance with Orca's Julia Rosenberg Feb 16, 2022

Show notes

It’s been said that DAOs (decentralized autonomous organizations) in their current form are neither decentralized nor autonomous. Instead, they’re human lead organizations that are still figuring out how to operate under a brand new paradigm. In this conversation with Orca Protocol’s Julia Rosenberg, we dive into the hardest problems facing decentralizing governance and how they can be solved. We also get into real world examples including Synthetix and the recent drama out of ENS.

Show notes

In a vampire attack reminiscent of SushiSwap vs Uniswap in 2020, NFT marketplace LooksRare found a clever way to coax users away from market leader OpenSea. The result? LooksRare did nearly double OpenSea’s volume in January. The catch? Due to incentives offered by LooksRare, these totals are heavily skewed by wash trading. In this conversation, we examine the launch of LooksRare and its long term sustainability.
