If who controls a technology is what matters, then sharing control is the work. And sharing control means governance.
@lizbarry of @metagov_project on why that is a thing people do, not a thing you install.

Yesterday’s SBC DAO Workshop 2026 at Stanford's theme was “Farewell, but not goodbye.”
Description: "DAOs are going through a winter: declining interest and enthusiasm as crypto prices waver and the frictions of existing DAO governance. Large DAO tooling companies like Tally folding; promising new experiments like Hats not finding traction.
On the other hand, many of the flagship DAOs are doing just fine. By certain counts, more companies are organizing assets on-chain than ever. Governance is changing; the era of the anything-goes forum is waning. And as with every other industry, the specter and opportunity of AI looms over it all..."
Excited to take part of the recordings. Keep an eye out here:
