Welcome to Stateless Weekly!
Each week, we curate a collection of the week’s best tweets, articles, blogs, essays, and podcasts on distributed organizations and their governance, as well as weekly governance updates on DAO protocols and projects. Keep scrolling to find those you’re interested in and follow the links to join the discussion and vote.
As always, reply here or reach out to us on the Boardroom Discord with ideas or questions.
Finally, two reminders:
Don’t forget to register for (or spread the word about) Boardroom’s Decentralized Governance Hackathon, co-sponsored with UMA, Gnosis, Snapshot, Compound, DAOhaus, and OpenLaw. The event is live and runs through September 7th.
Are you a governance enthusiast? Aspiring Delegate? Want to find a way to work for a DAO? Check out Boardroom’s Governance Scribe program and apply.
