The DAO Coalition

Representing the voices of the DAO ecosystem

Innovation in the DAO ecosystem has been outpacing the rate at which relevant legal clarity is established, leaving entrepreneurs, investors, and changemakers in the dark as to how to compliantly proceed. The DAO Coalition intends to help shed a light on some of these matters, by tapping into the insights and opinions of the various DAO communities, and advocating on behalf of them.

With hundreds, if not thousands, of DAOs out there, including those on Decentralist's List of DAOs, the need for such advocacy is clear and, in some cases, urgent.

Join the DAO Coalition

Below is a form you can use to apply for your DAO to join the coalition.

What you need for this form is a publicly verifiable claim from your DAO/organization which designates the address of the DAO (such as a multisig) as well as the address of the representative chosen by the DAO. There are a number of methods your DAO/organization can employ to designate these wallet addresses, such as a member proposal or an attestation. For more information on these methods, see the index below.
