๐ฝDAOifying reddit
old news? new news? doesnโt matter. reddit is DAOifying their community in the best way: subtly.
newsflash: if crypto was a rockstar it would be in full PR crisis mode right now. fear is rampant, rug pulls galore, & existential questions populate even the most optimistic crypto twitter thought leadersโ timelines
take: DAO talk studios believes DAO tech adoption will come with communities growing organically alongside crypto. web3 should not & cannot be forced down the throats of the unwilling. think about the 1st moment you finally โgotโ web3/crypto/DAOs: magic, right? we need to create more environments for magic moments & we think pre-existing web2 internet communities like reddit are ripe for the next wave of web3 adoption.
check the pod for the full, nuanced discussion.

โ๏ธEIP-5805 goes hard for DAOs
background: DAOs rely on tokens to determine voting power. token contracts have processes to ensure voting power can be accurately determined. problem is, these processes arenโt standardized. dangers include addresses double voting, only being able to delegate by fully transferring ownership of the token to the delegate, and more headaches!
EIP-5805 aims to standardize these processes to make forming organizations on-chain more uniform & less confusing. LFG.
