There are many definitions, assumptions and new terminologies associated with DAOs, and they vary significantly depending on which group you are communicating with. That being said, one of the key assumptions that still warrants clarification is the relationship between decentralized and centralized organizational frameworks. These frameworks are not static points at opposite ends of a spectrum. Rather, the different functions of an organisation operate on a centralization scale. Another interesting development is how blockchain technology is becoming a platform for capital formation. Decentralized finance uses applications built on open, public blockchains (like Ethereum or Bitcoin) to facilitate financial services to anybody, anywhere without the need for traditional financial intermediaries. Cryptocurrencies and digital assets can be moved directly within the DAO itself. While DAOs have been discussed and experimented with for the last four years, only now have they become the logical extension of the capital formation piece. This extension was first realized with Ethereum and MakerDao, which was one of the first DAOs and Decentralized Finance (DeFi) projects to be built on Ethereum. Decentralized Finance (DeFi) has the potential to spur growth in the formation of DAOs, particularly investment/for-profit DAOs. Despite the potential that DAOs present, they face challenges from legal, governance and security perspectives.
