DAOstar is the standards body for the DAO ecosystem, uniting key organizations to create standards and critical public infrastructure for DAOs. We are composed of over 90 key organizations in the space including every major DAO framework, a large number of DAO tooling companies, and many major DAOs. We're the IETF of DAOs.

DAOstar authored and maintains EIP-4824 / DAOIP-2: Common Interfaces for DAOs, along with many other standards already published and in development.

Some of our recent outputs include:

DAOIP-3: Attestations Standard for DAOs DAOIP-5: Grants Management standard, which will be instrumental to the long term success of Allo V2. The standard was co-authored by Kevin Owocki from Gitcoin and Joshua Tan from DAOstar. DAOIP-6: daoURI through ENS/DNS text records, which lists an easy path for decentralized organizations and their trusted third parties to set daoURIs, along with their indexing framework.

We are in the final stages of releasing:

DAO Attestations List: A web app that will list DAO-related EAS schemas. This initiative will greatly improve the state of attestation data surrounding DAOs, as it makes on-chain and off-chain attestations interoperable. The web app will be based on a public registry on EAS (defined by DAOIP-7, upcoming) Regulatory Interoperability dashboard to help DAOs seek regulatory equivalence at multiple jurisdictions. The working group recently released the The DAO Policy Trilemma Report and testified in legislative hearings to the government of Japan in March 2024, consulting on policies to support and enhance DAO adoption in Japan.

Help us shape the future of DAOs!
