Attempting an architecture for funding and governance for a commons serving Impact DAOs (communities that protect public goods). Can we transform siloed strengths in the trenches into repeatable success for the ecosystem? @CoinviseCo @forefront__ https://twitter.com/forefront__/status/1512445585361707019">https://twitter.com/forefront...

Impact DAOs are communities with positive externalities rooted in collective action for a shared cause. They amplify their impact by stacking on each other and derive compounding effects from the mutual collaboration to build a regenerative economy.
While no two Impact DAOs are the same, their shared DNA leads to similar organizational challenges such as:
- finding value-aligned talent
- securing funding
- program management
- establishing reputation systems
- creating a cohesive contributor experience

- creating a cohesive contributor experience
Hypothesis: There are potential synergies in codifying scalable solutions for these challenges and then applying them in the context of the respective Impact DAO. Without coordination, there is a risk of the knowledge remaining stuck in silos.
By effectively re-deploying the tribal knowledge gained in the trenches, the Impact DAOs can re-focus on what they do best - drive outcomes for the shared cause. How? A solution services entity that offers advisory, implementation, and support to Impact DAOs for a subsidized cost
In return, the Impact DAOs provide sweat equity for collaborating on problem definitions and early adoption of solutions. A curve bonded crowdfunding bootstraps the commons and tokens offer self-sustaining liquidity + returns as solutions gather a wider reach and adoption.
Here& #39;s an overview of the submission. Mechanism design deals with designing protocols that incentivize rational actors to behave in socially desirable ways. The Augmented Bonding Curve as a mechanism design provides continuous funding to maintain a shared public good.
The key here is progressive decentralization of modular governance based on scale and context. I extensively used "Community Rules" by @exittocommunity to gradually move from a self-appointed board to decentralized councils shepherded by stewards. How?

Hatch Phase: Bootstrapping the Community
Value-aligned Impact DAOs and investors who blend profit and purpose bootstrap the core services team and an elected board in return for deferred ownership and control.

Build Phase: Product-Market Fit
The elected board votes on proposals for creating and building a core set of solutions as a collaboration between the core team and Member Impact DAOs. The Member Impact DAOs pay for labor from the core team at a subsidized rate.

Open Phase: Decentralization at Scale
As scalable solutions grow, attract new investors and qualify new Member Impact DAOs that see the impact of the community and want to be a part of the movement so that the Funding Pool can grow.

The endgame here is spawning off mature solutions as product DAOs with their own micro-economy and user base of Impact DAOs, as existing governance structures will reach their limits. More details here: https://medium.com/p/d2d2af95ac47 ">https://medium.com/p/d2d2af9...
