## Description

Can DAOs compete with traditional corporate business organizations? When will DAOs emancipate us from our soul crushing fealty to Moloch?

The talk will cover all of these bases and start to answer the question, "Wen DAOs Win?". We will examine both the corporation and the DAO through a lens of organizational technology. We will uncover both their strengths and weaknesses; and start looking at how blockchain coordination mechanics can challenge the supremacy of the corporate organization structure. We will also talk about ways that corporations can use blockchain tools to increase efficiencies and decrease risk during collaborative B2B endeavors.

I will then go into a brief overview of the evolution of the DAO space and show off all of the new tools for operational impact in the DAO space. These tools would specifically be Gnosis Safe Zodiac modules, MolochDAO_v3, Hats Protocol, Fractals, Smart Invoice, and Prime Deals. We're going to talk about commitment contracts for onboarding and tasking. We're going to show how each of the pain points and weaknesses within DAOs can be systematically addressed.

I am then also going to introduce the concept of using autonomous pricing mechanics for DAOs to purchase services from contributors. There's a special price determination mechanic which enables DAOs to receive services in a way that optimizes game theory for the DAO as an agent.
