friends,
DAOs are having a moment & we’re here to help capture that moment & etch it into technological stone (ty substack). this week’s edition can be described in one word: drama.
let’s get into it!
discussed on the pod ⬇️
🌪 web3 community challenges the U.S. Treasury’s TC sanctions


the battle over the constitutionality of the TC sanctions has MASSIVE implications for DAOs & will take months to play out. we’ll keep you in the loop.
tl;dr Coincenter extremely based.
👀the writing is on the wall for Ethereum Protocol Sanctions. How will the community react?


the U.S. Treasury acting unilaterally to destroy an open-source privacy protocol is terrifying. what happens when they go after Ethereum? these questions need to be asked & answered w/ integrity.
🪙 Coinbase CEO Responds

Note: this is not just a tweet. As Frisson mentions on the pod, this is an officer of a publicly traded company making a deeply consequential statement in a public forum.
tl;dr bullish Ethereum’s ability to remain credibly neutral
🦄 UniswapDAO get’s major assist from giga 🧠

Uniswap DAO has no value accrual method. DAO members have long proposed a solution but it is nearly impossible without holding a MASSIVE amount of the DAO’s goverance token, $UNI (lol DAO governance)
Anish did the dirty work & created an autonomous proposal to activate the community to pass the solution without the friction of creating the proposal from scratch. dope.

MakerDAO almost (not confirmed) swapped 3.5 billion $USDC for $ETH to the uproar of literally every DeFi thought leader.
tl;dr they did not.
