Interesting read. Maybe some reference for the coming Bitsquare’s DAO model?

I’m getting a 500 error at that link, but I just happened to have this tab open.

I must say I would really like to see some success spring from this. Considering there is around $60 trillion USD estimated to be in global domestic markets, just a small fraction of that being moved toward companies/protocols which use a token for funding could make a huge impact on BTC’s market cap.
