The next generation of governors will be modular!

Speaker: Hadrien Croubois
Type: Lightning Talk

Event: Devcon
Date: Nov 2024
Onchain governance is one of the main non-financial usecases of ethereum. Still, innovation in that space is slow, and deployed solution are still very much tighted to financial assets. In order to move away from that situation, and build more powerfull governance solution, we need to build a more modular and evolutive approach.

Upgradeability of self governed contract
On-chain wallets offer many features that more traditional private key based account lack. This is why many projects are pushing toward broader adoption of multisig wallets to represent users' identity and improve the UX. Yet, all are different and it's unlikely that any of the multisig available right now will be relevant more than a few years. There are features we haven't even though about that will be important to have in the future.ERC725 proposes to build a minimalistic proxy and change its owner when the users feel the need. This allows you to keep your address and not have to move your token to a new wallet. But with this approach, the ownership logic doesn't own the assets so meta-tx with refund is more complex.A better solution would be to allow the proxy to be the multisig itself while offering the same upgradeability potential. Since EthCC 2019, KitsuneWallet has been building a framework that provides upgradeability by design it an increasing number of project (UniversalLogin, Shipl, ...). With this framework, users can upgrade their on-chain wallet to benefit from new features or even change the entire interface to move from one UX to another.

The Shape of Protocols to Come
Ethereum defies easy categorization—it blends aspects of money, nations, and more, yet doesn't fit neatly into any single category. To build better mental models for understanding Ethereum, we've spent the past two years stepping back and exploring the broader class it belongs to: Protocols. This talk explores the fundamental properties of protocols, strategies for navigating them, and how Ethereum can uniquely contribute to this emerging research field.

Onchain Capital Allocation: From current mechanisms to future possbilities
Capital allocation, from paying bills to complex organizational funding, often suffers from inefficiencies and lack of transparency. Web3 has the potential to revolutionize this by enabling more efficient, effective, and transparent capital distribution. By addressing coordination failures and introducing new onchain strategies, crypto could transform how society allocates resources. Gitcoin founder Kevin Owocki will articulate this design space in this 20 minute talk.

Trust Zones: Why DAOs will be the best organizations ever created
This talk introduces the theory of Trust Zones. Every Trust Zone is a unique blend of constraints, reputation requirements, and accountability measures, within which an agent can operate on behalf of an organization to further its goals. I will contend that the operational management of all organizations can be described as creating new Trust Zones and adjusting their parameters. And further, that DAOs and other onchain organizations can do this better than any other organizational form.

Common Knowledge Machines
Common knowledge is a precondition for collective action. Yet, increasing polarization in information ecosystems risks undermining common knowledge formation. This talk introduces Community Posts, a mechanism that leverages diversification and zero-knowledge proofs to help people identify divides, bridge them and find common ground, fostering greater common knowledge in social networks.

Cultivating the Understory : Building Resilient DAOs
Let's explore the overlooked "understory" of DAOs and teams: the human layer that forms the foundation of successful decentralized governance. While much attention is given to the technical and structural aspects of DAOs (the "overstory"), we'll dive into the cultural, social, and distributed leadership elements that are crucial for the longevity and effectiveness of anything we build. Themes: DAO Ecology, Decentralized leadership, Coding culture DNA, Biomimicry for Governance

DAOs Unmasked: The Hard Truths Behind the Hype
In this talk we will see what a DAO is, what its not and face some hard truths about DAOs and how they are used today. Does a DAO stand for Discord Administered Organization? Is a DAO just a discord chat and a multisig? Is a DAO a way for your company to have 2 cap tables, one for your and your investors and one for your community? Are DAOs a face for a Cayman Islands foundation which uses decentralization theater to shift liability? Are DAOs a way to sidestep regulations? Let's find out!
