Ethereum’s Vitalik Buterin Reveals Vision for ApeCoin, Zuzalu, and Other DAOs
Highlights
- Vitalik Buterin proposes highly decentralized and permissionless formalized membership in DAOs.
- There is continuous tradeoff space between the ApeCoin and ZuVillage levels of permissionedness.
- Ethereum creator envisions major change with Ethereum roadmap.
Ethereum co-creator Vitalik Buterin on Monday said he hopes to witness the future decentralized autonomous organization (DAO) having more ways to obtain highly decentralized and permissionless formal membership. Buterin claims any currency is permissioned currently and there is even a continuous tradeoff space between the ApeCoin and ZuVillage levels of permissionedness.
Vitalik Buterin Proposes Quadratic Funding Style For DAO
Ethereum co-founder Vitalik Buterin responded to an X post on different levels of gatekeeping at DAO governance forums. The current open structure of the best DAO project requires “heavy-handed moderation,” since spammers and sales post on the forum tasking on the forum.
Zuzalu is referred to as the most sophisticated with 3 levels of access, with those who haven’t attended any popup city being excluded completely.
Meanwhile, ApeCoin governance form is open to all in Web3 and Arbitrum DAO is open to anyone on the Internet. This poses risks to the project and the people.
Vitalik Buterin claims any currency is permissioned and one needs permission from the existing holder to become a holder in the project. He added that there is a continuous tradeoff space between the ApeCoin and ZuVillage levels of permissionedness.
“You could imagine a quadratic funding style mechanism, weighted by existing membership points, to accumulate membership points. This is the sort of thing that I would love to see the Optimism Citizens’ House, Zuzalu communities, and other DAOs experimenting with.”
He thinks that DAO needs more ways to have formalized membership that are highly decentralized and permissionless. Also, the decentralization must not be restricted to token holdings only.
