Making Decisions in a DAO: Gitcoin Lessons Learned with Annika Lewis

In a decentralized organization, it’s not always clear who has jurisdiction over what decisions. This leads to conflict, duplicated work, and frustration among contributors. What types of decisions should be made by expert groups of core contributors, versus which ones should be put forth to the community at large? How do we make sure we don’t stifle progress with over-governance? And what role should delegates play in decision-making? This talk will explore these questions that plague all DAOs, and will bring it all to life with real-world examples from the past year at Gitcoin.
