DAOs Professionalised - But at What Cost? - Oxytocin | Velora

ETH Belgrade 2025 · June 2025 · 33:24

Oxytocin examines what gets lost as DAOs professionalize at ETH Belgrade 2025, trading informal, community-driven governance for paid contributors, formal processes, and more conventional organizational structure. It weighs the efficiency gains of professionalized DAO operations against the risk of drifting from the decentralized, member-driven ethos that originally defined them. The talk treats DAO governance as an open tension rather than a settled question.
