Published: March 22, 2022, 5:42 p.m.

Historically, humans have organized themselves in a variety of ways: from tribes and councils, to LLCs, and C-Corps. But these forms of organization tend to be centralized in nature, and feel slightly out of place today.\n\nWith so much of our personal and professional lives taking place online now, the real question is: what does an internet-native way of organizing ourselves and our resources look like? \n\nDAOs, or Decentralized Autonomous Organizations, are one compelling answer. In this episode, we unpack that. We explore the fundamentals: what DAOs are, how they function, and what they entail for the future of work. \n\nTo take on this task, we\u2019re welcoming Tracheopteryx to the show! Trach is a cofounder at Coordinape\u2014a scalable & permissionless platform for decentralized compensation built for the needs of DAOs. \n\nTrach has been operating in this space for a while now. He is also a core contributor at Yearn Finance\u2014making him the perfect guest to help us unpack DAOs. \n\nWe hope you enjoy this conversation as much as we did!
