You all seem to be as curious about DAOs as me so here are 5 links to explore further...
1/ @AnnikaSays wrote a 3 part series on her DAO journey.

It's a great measured take on how to contribute to a DAO:
annika.mirror.xyz/p3_DJ6t7FlVgeg…
2/ @rafathebuilder wrote an excellent step by step guide on how to create a DAO with a list of tools that he used.

I've been looking for this type of guide for a long time:
creators.mirror.xyz/862A5rBtKX3BC8…
3/ @patrickxrivera walks through the lifecycle of a tokenized community as part of @cryptosocietyS1 (oops should've signed up).

Top notch stuff as usual:
4/ If you want to see DAO governance in action check out @SnapshotLabs which has a list of DAOs and proposals for each.

Feel free to join a few DAOs in this list as well:
snapshot.org/#/
5/ Finally, you're welcome to join my community for beginners (including myself!) to learn about web3.

What is a DAO?

Let me try to explain using an example:

Imagine that you want to work for a hot tech startup...
1/ Instead of applying for a job, you can just join this startup's Slack with one click.

There's no real onboarding - you see dozens of channels right away.

It's overwhelming but you start exploring...
2/ You introduce yourself and another person reaches out.

They point you to two different ways to work for this startup:

1. Bounties
2. Teams

New to web 3 and want someone to "explain like I'm five" how crypto works?

I've written a single post that breaks down:

1. Web 3
2. Blockchain (wallets and keys, proof of work vs. stake)
3. Tokens
4. Bitcoin
5. Ethereum
6. NFTs
7. DAOs

Let's dive in...

1/ What is web 3?

Let's compare web 2 to web 3:

Web 2 is the internet today. It's dominated by middlemen that extract value from creators and users by sitting in the middle.

Web 3 is built off a peer-to-peer network of computers that talk to each other without middlemen.

Stripe is THE platform behind the platforms in the creator economy.

I asked Ellen and Connor from @stripe about:

1. How Stripe powers creator platforms

2. What Stripe vision is for the creator economy (and does it include web 3?)

Here's a breakdown...
creatoreconomy.so/p/stripe-in-th…
1/ Twitter is dominated by hype cycles and FOMO.

Stripe is not.

Instead, the company is building "boring" infra to help creators get paid by fans in 100+ countries.

Boring but game changing.
2/ Payments is really hard.

The table below highlights all the challenges.

No business or creator wants to deal with all this stuff just to move money from point A to B.

Stripe doesn't mind "being the plumbing." Image

I think the way to address the "top 1% of creators make all the money" problem is to:

1. Shift the focus from creator to community
2. Let fans share in the upside
3. Help fans become creators

Consider this scenario...
1. A creator sets up a community for their fans.

2. Fans earn community tokens and NFTs if they're early supporters or put in the work to grow the community.
3. These tokens and NFTs grow in value with the community. Creators AND fans share in this upside.

4. Fans are empowered to co-create content in the community.

5. Some fans create their own communities and the whole loop starts again.
