I think we (the crypto community) needs to distinguish DAOs from DOs in our regular parlance There are not that many DAOs: most layer 1s, loot, nouns, Graph, etc (there is some variance in how DAO-y these are) There are many DOs: FWB, Pleasur, Flamingo, YGG, Salad, etc

We need to move the web3 narrative beyond exclusivity + flexing In 10 years, people won't buy NFTs to flex They'll buy NFTs because it gives them the ability to govern + co-create digital spaces they care about This is why most digital communities will become DAOs
