122. Going DAO the Rabbit Hole
Dec 09, 2021•1 hr 27 min
Episode description
We kept ignoring DAOs and web3 hoping it would go away, but sadly it hasn’t. So we pick apart each part of the acronym—decentralized, autonomous, organization—and discuss the techno-politics of their promise and practice. We get into blockchain, smart contracts, and corporate governance.
