DAO

The Autonols protocol provides a framework for coordinating and managing autonomous agent systems. Each part of the protocol is designed to ensure scalability and security. It provides mechanisms to incentivize developers proportionally to their contributions, incentivize operators to run agent systems, and incentivize guarantors to provide liquidity, collectively supporting the development of a decentralized ecosystem.

Polkadot and Cosmos were both launched during the 2019–2020 cycle as cross-chain projects. Each of them carries high expectations. While both projects have experienced prolonged price stagnation since their 2021 market cap peaks, their adoption at the application layer has followed different paths—leveraging relay chains and slot mechanisms in distinct ways. This article reviews the past five years of ecosystem development for these two leading cross-chain projects from an application perspective.

Decentralized Science (DeSci) is becoming a crucial aspect of Web3 development, as it solves fundamental problems such as unequal research funding, intellectual property monopolies, and lack of transparency in scientific research. By leveraging DAO, IP-NFTs, and token economies, DeSci empowers scientific innovation, drives the real-world adoption of Web3, and accelerates progress toward fairer and more open research.

Decentralized Autonomous Organizations (DAOs) are rapidly emerging as a key force reshaping global governance and resource allocation. This article outlines 69 trends in DAO design for 2025, covering a wide range of aspects, including AI integration, privacy protection, capital allocation, and decentralized governance.

The origins of decentralized autonomous organizations (DAOs) trace back to foundational ideas developed long before Ethereum’s inception. By combining the strengths of decentralized governance with the capabilities of artificial intelligence, hybrid DAOs could play a pivotal role in shaping a future where technology and humanity coexist harmoniously.

This article explores the potential development of the DeSci (Decentralized Science) field, particularly focusing on how the BIO Protocol is driving a new model for biomedical data sharing through blockchain technology. It promotes the fair distribution of global research resources, with an emphasis on the profound impact of DeSci on medical data management, especially in terms of enhancing research efficiency and protecting intellectual property. The article also discusses the challenges in this field and the future directions of its development.

DAS Organizations (Decentralized Autonomous Swarms) are self-governing systems that combine blockchain and AI, composed of AI agents capable of autonomously identifying problems, organizing solutions, and self-dissolving. They operate based on the Eliza framework and Trusted Execution Environments (TEEs), offering efficient resource management, security, and transparency. Blockchain provides trustless governance support. DAS Organizations can be widely applied in scenarios such as urban planning and healthcare resource optimization, while their evolutionary mechanisms enhance intelligence and adaptability. They redefine the approach to problem-solving and have the potential to become the core of future digital governance, driving innovative solutions to the challenges humanity faces.

The development history of DAOs has spanned over a decade, and following the explosive growth period of DAOs in 2021, they have gradually become a familiar organizational and administrative model in human society. Subsequently, various large-scale DAOs have conducted experiments and expansions in governance, leading to diverse governance research. This article compiles reference parameters that can serve as governance indicators for data analysis in various governance contexts. Each parameter is typically used to quantify a specific indicator, but the importance of each indicator varies depending on the type of DAO.

Emphasizing the pivotal role of stablecoins in the crypto economy, it advises investors to thoroughly understand their operational mechanisms before investing to ensure financial security.

This article delves into the necessity of cryptocurrency insurance, analyzing the cybersecurity threats and theft risks faced by the cryptocurrency market, as well as how insurance can provide protection for investors and exchanges. It outlines the definition and coverage of cryptocurrency insurance and explains how it can help mitigate losses caused by scams, hacking, and other illicit activities. The article also lists several well-known cryptocurrency insurance providers, including Kase, CoinCover, EmBrokers, Nexus Mutual, and Athena Ins, discussing how they offer security for digital assets. It emphasizes the importance of adopting additional security measures and expresses optimism about the future development of decentralized insurance protocols.

Onyx Protocol is a decentralized finance (DeFi) platform built on the Ethereum blockchain. It enables users to lend, borrow, and provide liquidity in a transparent, secure, and immutable manner. Powered by decentralized governance, Onyx Protocol ensures community-driven decision-making and the highest standards of protocol integrity.

Governance attacks pose a significant security risk in decentralized blockchain governance. This article examines the governance attack on Compound, detailing its methods, the short- and long-term risks involved, and how technical improvements and community efforts can help mitigate these challenges. It also discusses prevention strategies and highlights the lasting impact of governance attacks on DeFi protocols and the broader ecosystem, enabling the industry to better prepare for future governance threats.

Vana is a Web3 startup focused on building a user-owned data pool network, addressing the issue of insufficient training data for AI models through blockchain technology. It also provides internet users with opportunities to earn income. Recently, Vana announced the completion of a $5 million strategic funding round led by Coinbase Ventures, bringing its total funding to $25 million. Vana plans to establish a DAO network that allows members to contribute and sell datasets to AI researchers, driving the development of a decentralized AI ecosystem.

This guide will explain what a DAO is in blockchain, how a decentralized organization works, types of decentralized autonomous organizations, why DAOs are important, and how to create a decentralized autonomous organization.
