What Would a Mutual Aid DAO Look Like?

Where most DAOs just give out governance tokens in proportion to what you put in (e.g. 100 tokens for .1 ETH, or 1,000 tokens for 1 ETH), PactDAO plans to assign tokens according to nonfinancial participation, too. Joining in on community events might earn you a greater share of tokens. It’s a kind of cooperative structure; the largest donors won’t automatically get the most say in how the DAO develops, and the most active organizers can be rewarded. “Pact is not like other social clubs,” reads a slogan on the group’s Mirror landing page. “We’ll call it a socialist club.”
