In this episode, we dive into the evolution of DAO communities and events with Yalor and Stacey. From the early days of MetaCartel, MCON & MetaCamp, to the ambitious vision of MetaCampus, we talk about the importance of in-person gatherings and building the social fabric. What are MetaCamp and MetaCampus? Why choose Costa Rica for building a Web3 village, and why choose Detroit for MCON III? And most importantly, why investing in relationships might be more valuable than chasing the next memecoin? “More financial games are not what will move the world and save us from impending collapse." - Yalor These are some of the questions and answers discussed. Overall: Origins of MCON and MetaCamp The GM Bus project Evolution of MetaCartel and its impact on the ecosystem The concept and development of MetaCampus The importance of community-building in Web3 Why Detroit as the new location for MCON Doing conferences differently The social layer and relationship-building at MetaCamp Reputation and identity in decentralized networks The value of in-person gatherings A significant portion of the episode is dedicated to MetaCamp, an offshoot of MCON that offers a more intimate atmosphere in Costa Rica. The guests explain how this event has evolved into MetaCampus, a permanent facility designed to host various Web3 events and foster deeper connections within the community.

Recently organised a summit in Lisbon focusing on autonomous worlds, which he notes is kind of an updated phrase for “the metaverse” which was the topic a few years ago, even before Facebook was called Meta.We talk about his experiences in the web3 space. About the early internet and how it works. About the cypherpunks from the 70s, 80s and 90s who pioneered these ideas about digital freedoms and rights, and cryptography.And we talk about collective lore and canon, like a shared belief in the Star Wars universe that is held in a shared imagination.SPONSORSZerion combines every corner of web3 in a simple and intuitive app for self-custodial humans.

On this episode of Frontiers of Coordination Peth welcomes artist, philosopher and researcher Travis Wyche. After a couple of years in the Web3 space he considers himself a more culturally focused contributor rather than a technical person even when he spends part of his time doing a variety of research on UXs and developing UI design. The fact is that the interweaving of his skills and interests led to Pluriverse, a transmedia lorecrafting experiment in collective imagineering. Screaming at punk shows was his first approach to the Moloch meme. Later in life when he entered Web3 he would connect it to Allen Ginsberg's poem Howl, an event that in a way funneled him down a rabbit hole of connecting these cultural influences with the technical game theory of coordination. That is what attracted him to the space in the first place: “I'm not really a Degen; I didn't get drawn into crypto through DeFi or anything like that, through the tokens really at all, but more of the high level philosophy, politics, the various kinds of connections to things in my own background as an artist, as a musician, as a community organizer, as an anarchist, as an aging punk. All those kinds of cultural affinities are what brought me in”. It's from that perspective that he appreciates the meaning of the Moloch meme, known as the god of coordination failure while also associated with child sacrifice among other things. For him,it's an image that serves as a “memetic filter” for people to understand the potency that image creates for a “community first” kind of orientation.

Chair & Bacon are back with a new episode! This time they take us into ETHDenver, with Chair telling us about his experience at the largest blockchain festival in the world. The event, where he got to meet a lot of octos from MetaGame was a, was a good way to get both hyped about MetaFest2, the only MetaCartel event happening this year, from august 11th to 25th at Fort Punta Christo in Croatia. Wait… WTF is MetaFest? A festival including everything you'd expect of a festival + everything you'd expect of a conference + an optional week-long trip. “I have no doubt that it would be a fun time, a very good bonding experience for a lot of friends that don't get to see each other in person or very rarely”, Chair said. With the vast list of speakers and the epic adventures down the coast of Croatia, we think so too ;) From texturePunx, Keyp onboarding platform, Sillicon Valley Bank going bankrupt, to the “spookiness” of Aavegotchi closing the $GHST bonding curve the exact day of DAI's depeg, in this episode Chair and Bacon also talked about news and projects that have caught their attention these days as well as future guests for the show.

In this episode Peth has a talk with one of his favorite people in the space to chat about the challenges and the future of DAOs and governance. Dekan Brown is a developer and a Daoist. He's one of the founders of DAOHaus, Raid Guild and Metacartel. His work has been focused in governance and community type experiments. This time he shares the lessons and perspectives he's gained over the last three years working in the crypto space. "We are basically trying to reinvent the system and get people to think about things differently," he states. In his opinion there's the idea of digital organizations but the idea of decentralization, resiliency, robustness and anti-capture has been forgotten. Reflecting on past experiences he shares that avoiding what he calls “operational overhead”, minimizing governance and having a high-level purpose are some of the areas for improvement in DAOs. “What we should be going for is millions of different kinds of sovereign nations where every person is a citizen of maybe hundreds of thousands of other nations and, as an individual, you have the sovereignty to move wherever you want, to use your money however you want and to form in this groups and understand where the publics goods for this groups are and how are you funding them”. Some of the topics: · DAO narrative pushed in the wrong direction · DAO Citizenship · Digital corporations vs DAOs · Token holders vs community · Treasury less DAOs · DAO governance · Burocratic ingroups and “operational overhead” · Setting a purpose and guiding principles · Minimizing governance · Seasonal leadership changes · Periods of reflection and goal setting · Voting periods and grace periods · Retroactive reviews · MolochDAO framework · DAO purism vs pragmatism · The future of DAOs Resources: Dekan Brown twitter DAOHaus twitter DAOHaus website Moloch DAO twitter Raid Guild twitter Raid Guild website MetaCartel twitter MetaCartel website --- Send in a voice message: https://podcasters.spotify.com/pod/show/metagame/message
Peth, Summoner of MetaGame, began his journey into DAOs in the early days of MetaCartel, where he wrote the community's black paper, and where the idea of MetaGame first emerged. He was inspired to gamify and coordinate the web3 onboarding experience after seeing how challenging navigating it could be, and how widespread the issue is. Despite its online existence, for peth, so much about web3 is IRL and tangible. He has masterfully crafted MetaGame's lore, which is interwoven with a curated community that meets in real life.

Ven is a designer and a general coordinator in several DAOs such as MetaCartel, DAOhaus and Raid Guild, among others. In this episode he shares his views and perspective on pioneering in DAOs and how to expand the frontiers of coordination. “One thing the community have to do is sustain itself but the other thing is to explore the frontiers”, he shares. “currently there are DAOs that are very tight circles and when people want to pioneer, they have to go outside the circle to do it, which is necessary but also creates difficulty in coordinating”. For him, instead of DAOs being a rigid structure, there need to be protocols and mechanisms within the communities for pioneers to be empowered. He believes that the future is oriented towards cross-DAO collaboration; however they need to figure out how to coordinate better before they can start coordinating across them. “We need to be able to go fast and go far together and if DAOs can do that, we can actually start doing really effective governance”. Some of the topics: What is a frontier of coordination in DAOs Pioneering in DAOs His key take-aways from his work within DAOs How to incentivize pioneering and coordination Growth vs sustainability His view on the future of DAOs: collaborative initiatives The use cases for protocols and platforms for DAOs and communities MetaOS Resources: Vengist Twitter MetaCartel Twitter MetaCartel website DAOHaus website DAOHaus twitter MetaGame Twitter MetaGame website --- Send in a voice message: https://anchor.fm/metagame/message

On this Episode of Rehash: a web3 podcast, we sat down with Kseniya and Nich, contributors at Meta Gamma Delta DAO. MDG started as a parody of sororities and has evolved into a grants DAO for women-led projects in web3. We kick off the episode getting to know Kseniya and Nich, and their journeys into web3. We discuss how MGD started and how it has evolved. We talk about the choice to use the Moloch DAO structure, pros and cons of using DAOhaus on mainnet, and they leave us with some advice on choosing an L2 or sidechain for your own DAO. Next, we get into the community side of things, discussing how MGD fosters its community (a community of mostly women) and how other DAOs can adopt some of their best practices. Lastly, since MGD is now primarily a grants DAO for women-led projects in web3, Kseniya and Nich share the process for how MDG distributes grants, how MDG gets its own funding, and shout out some past projects that MGD has funded. Kseniya and Nich were nominated by Zayi (@ZayiRey) and some of the questions asked in this episode were submitted by DAO members Zayi and Carsten (@carstenpoetter).To continue this conversation and stay up to date on all things Rehash, you can follow Diana on Twitter @ddwchen and Rehash @rehashweb3.

It's time to take a deep dive into the #DAOs. What's the ethos of DAO coordination, how to create a culture of collaboration, why DAOS are the future, and how do we onboard millions of people? That's what we're tackling today on The DeFi Scoop with Yalor Mewn from MetaCartel and Raid Guild. Listen now. You can also watch this episode on YouTube here: https://youtube.com/playlist?list=PLwBuSteQx76Tmi3W1ZYHXxkRJnn2y9QWo — Gelato Network is Web3's premier automation network, enabling developers to automate a wide variety of arbitrary smart contract executions on and across all EVM-based compatible blockchains such as Ethereum. Examples of use cases developers have built on top of Gelato include Limit Orders on AMMs like Uniswap, automatic compounding of yield farming vaults, Aave liquidation protection, MakerDAO debt ceiling updates, automated liquidity management, and even the petting of Aavegotchis. Our ultimate goal is to automate everything, and by giving developers the reliable tools they need to do this, we can empower their users to get the most out of their Web3 experience.
In February, it's time again for ETHDenver, which continuously has been the largest web3 event in the world with about 10.000 guests in person and 50.000 tuning in online. Projects like POAP and 1Inch came out of ETHDenver, and it's the first event for many folks coming into the space. Josh left Consensys in February 2020 and found his new job at ETHDenver, volunteering at the registration and merch table. He ended up with Opolis. Now, Josh is building the community at Opolis, he is the merch steward of ETH Denver, the treasurer at Spork DAO, the founder of RainbowRolls, a member of MetaCartel, and Patron of MetaGame. In this episode, Chair & Bacon discuss with Josh the legal liability as a freelancer in the US working for a DAO, and Josh shares some ETHDenver alpha in February. Some of the topics are: How Opolis helps with your payroll, taxes, health benefits, and more Spork token & benefits of the Bufficorn Buidl Brigade The Colorado cooperatives law and the legalization of DAOs A DeFi dev running for congress in Oregon Reading tips for web3 newbies What to look forward to at ETH Denver “We are living in this wild, wild west. We don't know how legislation is going to look like in the future & we don't know what security will be there. So contributing to a DAO as an individual is incredibly risky.” Opolis is a cooperative that wants to bring peace of mind to freelancers, not only those working in web3. The requirements to join are minimum wage income and having an employment entity in the US. Opolis helps with setting up a company, paying invoices in crypto, it takes care of your taxes, insurance, and even provides unemployment benefits. The episode concludes with Josh sharing some highlights for ETH Denver. Check out ColoradoJam Incubator and Bufficorn Ventures from Spork DAO.

Pet3r Pan got into crypto around 2017, writing his Before Bitcoin series and finding his way into the Ethereum community. As a core member of the movement, Pet3r is one of the earliest DAO pioneers as a champion of Metacartel. This conversation revolves around the power of curating people and projects.

Penguin slid into the MetaGame and out of his 9-5 thanks to a classic pandemic story including working-from-home and a covid layoff. He found the DAOspace originally by alpha-testing a text-based game called waterdeep. He learned about NFTs and started asking questions, the answers to which hurled him down the rabbit hole of discovery, finding MetaCartel, MetaGame and other online communities. He started as a developer, and never expected that he'd be playing an instrumental piece in building bridges, connecting communities, understanding novel technologies and engaging members. In this episode we explore Penguin's entry into the world of DAOs and how that evolved into his participation in 14+ DAOs. We talk about his secrets for organization and success (hint: love and sticky notes play an integral part), web33 technology, democracy, and how to seize opportunities in the cryptospace (by contributing & not worrying about payments). Some of the topics: Connecting web3-aligned people with their optimal growth positions Equalizing opportunities rather than equalizing wealth 24hr days and rapid progress in the crypto space Community and social interaction in DAOs Skill Tree mapping Penguin and Peth discuss the freedom that results from taking ownership over the value you add to the DAOspace, and the collective empowerment created - the work of sovereign developers no longer belongs to their employers, but rather can be used to create value in multiple different networks. They further explore this freedom by acknowledging the opportunity that arises from a super interconnected community full of DM-able rockstars! The episode concludes with a comforting reminder that while financial gain is nice, having the right reasons to show up to work is everything. “Credit sleep and understand your own limitations. Balancing yourself and having friends you can connect to is just as important as creating the next project. It let's you sustain and be a person, rather than a machine.” Resources Waterdeep Ethernal MetaCartel MetaFactory Steemit and Justin Sun Skill Forest Working Group DAOhaus --- Send in a voice message: https://anchor.fm/metagame/message
Hammad is a human of MetaGame; a software engineer, a designer, a futurist & a DAOist. Contributor to MetaGame, MetaFactory, Sourcecred & MetaCartel. he began contributing to MetaGame in late 2019. He was our very first serious builder, bringing us Sourcecred, building the first landing page & setting the foundations of the MetaOS. Suffice to say, we owe him a lot. In this episode we explore Hammad’s personal history; from crafting & trading in Runescape, to turning down Microsoft & his journey into the cryptoverse - along with explorative commentary on how web3 is providing a wealth of opportunity to people worldwide. Some of the topics The welcoming nature of the crypto space to newbies Discord as the current tool for web3 communities NFTs beyond art Building “Squad wealth” Standing on the shoulders of giants & composability in Web3 Peth and Hammad discuss the ways in which crypto is revolutionizing financial systems, community wealth and coordination. They discuss the importance of good coordination and project management, as well as the rapid rate of evolution and the potential that is available because of that. “Collaborating is more effective as a business strategy than trying to build your own and compete. In web3, you have huge projects and communities that are so powerful because they are collaborating with each other and creating a network of value.” The episode concludes with a critical assessment of the degenerative side of web3; from gambling in the world’s biggest casino to chasing the “highs” of sourcecred, to buying and selling tokens to maximize profits while disregarding the communities behind them.

Mariano Conti, the head of smart contracts for MakerDAO and creator of SelloutDAO, and Peter Pan, the summoner for Metacartel DAO, discuss all things DAOs, including how Peter started Metacartel DAO after being rejected from MolochDAO, and why Mariano initially voted against Peter joining. (Peter eventually joined.) They also discuss how they came to form YangDAO, why Mariano almost rage quit MolochDAO after the YangDAO formed, and how other MolochDAO members felt about SelloutDAO, which Mariano describes as an experiment in "on-chain corruption." We discuss how DAOs are actually heavily built on trust and why they require a lot of social coordination off-chain. They also discuss funding for LAOs, which have a legal entity such as an LLC affiliated with them, why Metacartel is launching a LAO, and which types of projects should be funded by DAOs vs traditional corporate structures. We also cover governance issues at MakerDAO, why it has a CEO, and what role leadership in general plays in a DAO. Thank you to our sponsors!
