What aspect of ApeCoin DAO did we get RIGHT (or WRONG) that other DAOs got WRONG (or RIGHT)?

With the DAO celebrating its 2nd Birthday, I pose this new Temp Check Poll to the community:

What aspect of ApeCoin DAO are we doing RIGHT that other DAOs are doing WRONG? On the flip side, what aspect of ApeCoin DAO are we doing WRONG that other DAOs are doing RIGHT?

I have a list of possible options for you:

Voting - This covers all aspects related to how we handle, conduct, implement, and perform voting, and includes how 1 Ape = 1 Vote.

Proposals - This covers the process and procedure for how writing, submitting, and give community members the ability to submit proposals, so long as they hold 1 APE.

Community - This covers aspects related to the number, quality, and distribution of our community members

Administration - This covers aspects related to how we have the APE Foundation and Stewards that facilitations the decentralized and community-led governance of ApeCoin DAO. This also covers how we handle elections.

Token - This covers aspects related to how we have, utilize, and/or are work with the ApeCoin ERC-20 token.

Branding - This covers aspects related to how we shape who we are as a DAO.

Marketing - This covers aspects related to how we promote our DAO

Products - This covers any product that is a result or was funded by ApeCoin DAO.

Other (Leave a comment) - This covers everything else that would otherwise not be covered by one of the above topics.

What do you think?

In my opinion I think it’s the Ape token, the price isn’t really encouraging especially for potential investors

Is this for what we got right or wrong?

The best funded DAO out there.

We’re not getting it right

Not to forget that there’s a huge misunderstanding that $ape is for only Bored apes and mutants. Thats a huge barrier and despite making a difference, some people want Apecoin DAO to only work around bored apes. That creates the DAO limits

I love the aspect of proposal
Giving members the opportunity to say their mind in spite of being positive or not

Hi Matt! What examples come to mind of DAOs that have been intentional about getting other communities involved, through incentives or otherwise?

Very interesting. Seems to be a common issue with scaling, but maybe it’s also a matter of redefining what “successful” means for a self-governing DAO. Even “established” decentralised governance frameworks like holacracies have lots of limitations and not a lot of real world success cases.

I wonder if the key lies in addressing your observation on scope/lack of clear direction. It seems to me like the direction is sometimes set by what the DAO doesn’t want, rather than what it wants to pursue, which makes direction-setting a more tedious process of elimination rather than alignment.

The voting process is quite encouraging compared to other communities
Kudos to the everyone

I am talking to various communities to get them involved in thankape, then have them put proposals forward via UMA as well as AIPs.

Also interestingly it seems MOCA community have also added 300k on top of the 6m from Animoca. They split the names on the delegation page about 2 weeks ago.

Good if someone can clarify the exact difference between these.
