## Description

Constitutions of Web3 By Joshua Tan, Max Langenkamp, Anna Weichselbraun, Ann Brody, and Lucia Korpas

Based on the research presented at https://constitutions.metagov.org, we present and draw lessons from a data set of DAO constitutions and provide a set of recommendations for future DAO constitutions. The text of these constitutions vary from 300-word blog posts to to 30-page legal charters, reflecting the variety of intended audiences, maturity of community, and document purpose. However, despite their differences, each constitution can be productively understood as part of a broader discourse around governance within the emerging DAO ecosystem.
