A decentralized autonomous organization (DAO) is a group organized around a mission that coordinates through a shared set of rules enforced on a blockchain. DAOs are currently a critical part of major DeFi protocols, but are on their way to becoming the tech stack for a truly democratic world.
In this lecture presented at Stanford's BioE60 Beyond Bitcoin course, Ron Boger (https://twitter.com/ronboger) and Ori Shimony (https://twitter.com/orishim) of dOrg present an overview on DAOs. The lecture covers what DAOs are, the history, current use, and potential future applications.

dOrg is an autonomous collective of engineers, designers, and other web3 specialists. We build tools that empower people to self-organize.
We envision a future where power is radically decentralized – people can easily coordinate and transact without intermediaries; institutions are transparent and responsive to the needs of their constituents; self-governing collectives outcompete coercive monopolies; wealth is fairly distributed, and machines handle the boring work while humans focus on meaningful pursuits.
We believe that web3 will be a key part of this future and we’re here to build it.
