S1 E2: DAOn to Cow Around (David Phelps)

DAOn the Rabbit Hole

In this episode of DAOn the Rabbit Hole, we’re talking to David Phelps. He’s an investor at Cowfund, a well-known crypto writer, and he’s here to talk all about DAOs.

David talks about how he fell into the world of crypto from a background in political organizing and how he became involved with DAOs. He talks about some of the specific DAOs he’s involved with and how these projects work.

We talk about the role of NFTs within DAOs, and how they could become governance tokens in some ways. David talks about the potential of DAOs to create an entirely new way for people to collaborate around a common cause.

David talks about how projects like ecodao – a Web 3.0 gallery to support the environment – can be used to drive change and progress when it comes to things like the environment and ecology. We talk about the importance of diversity within DAOs, the role of memes in Web 3.0, and the lessons DAOs can learn from ecology.

We talk about Cowfund, another project David is a collaborator on, and how it works. David talks about the importance of building relationships in Web 3.0 and what that means for the space and the world as a whole.
