DAO/DHO Platform
The The DAO/DHO Platform is a governance, operations, and tokenomics tool for Decentralized Autonomous/Human Organizations (DAOs and DHOs), developed by Hypha, an app development DHO for regenerative communities. DAOs are widely used as the governing and operations platform in decentralized finance (DeFi) for management of blockchains and cryptocurrency funding pools. DHOs are the SEEDS version of DAOs.
Why DAOs and DAO platforms?
These tools are built for global experimentation, and collective co-evolution. As groups discover novel coordination patterns - any group would then have the ability to adopt their pattern (effective co-evolution) into their organization through their bespoke governance processes. This way we can more easily learn and evolve together as a unified ecosystem and advance our capabilities all while each organization spends less time thinking about how they coordinate and - more time doing the actual mission they set out to do. These tools are designed to continually give our organization's more capable, flexible, and effective "coordination applications" to handle the complexities of our global civilizations and global challenges.
