DAOs leverage blockchain tech to help people work together toward common goals.
A proof-of-work blockchain like Ergo provides a solid, secure foundation for a DAO.
It is possible to build multi-signature wallets, smart contracts, and other types of security software that are necessary for a DAO to work.
For example, a standard task of a DAO is to vote on some course of action.
Ideally, a DAO can automate the proposal and voting process, and then, a smart contract can do some action.
That action could be to spend funds from a DAO treasury once the vote is completed.
With a baseline of security, it is possible to create smart contracts for identity, reputation, vesting, and profit-sharing.
A whole range of other features has yet to be imagined.
Paideia writes its own software, has it reviewed by experts, and all of its code will remain open source.
If security is a process, this is an approach that can give DAO members confidence that the DAO software they use is secure.
It is not enough to have secure smart contracts.
Paideia’s initial focus is on creating two governance models: optimistic (sometimes referred to as lazy consensus) and simple majority with quorum.
Each will share standardized workflows and token management features and lay the groundwork for additional models in future iterations of the @PaideiaDAO software.
Easy-To-Use, Cost-Effective & Global:
One of the reasons to build Paideia on the #ergo 's blockchain is that transaction costs are low.
A DAO software suite on many other blockchains is often prohibitively expensive for ordinary people.
Paideia is attempting to broaden the market.
With a lower barrier to entry and more accessibility, DAOs become more useful.
On the 21st of June marked an incredible milestone for the #ergo network and ecosystem.
Nearly 8 months ago, core developer, Alex Chepurnoy, proposed an adjustment to the emission schedule of $ERG.
Why ?
The reason for this is simple: extend the mining rewards beyond the original eight year schedule.
This would give the #ergo team more time to effectively develop the necessary crypto economic SECURITY for the long-term sustainability of the blockchain.
