3. E. GlenWeyl: The DAO organization is at the heart of Web3’s potential

On September 20th, at the 8th Blockchain Global Summit hosted by Wanxiang Blockchain Lab, E. Glen Weyl, founder of Radicalx Change, Microsoft CTO Political Economist and Researcher of the Office of Social Technologists, delivered the theme: “Decentralized Society: Finding the Soul of Web3”.

E. Glen Weyl said in his speech that the DAO organization is the core of the potential of Web3, and the DAO governance should be the most potential of the DAO so far, but the DAO governance has so far been mainly through the tradable homogeneous generation coin to achieve. That is to say, anyone who has enough strength to buy more than 50% of the tokens can grab the value of the entire DAO ecosystem, which affects the development potential of DAO. And when talking about soul-bound tokens, it means that soul-bound tokens are completely different from standard NFTs. They are not financial items or financial assets. They represent the relationship between the issuer and the recipient, not the recipient’s property.
