Best DAOs won’t be branded around Web3. Web3 is an enabling technology, but not the brand. Best DAOs build brand on top of a mission, culture, and community. Think about TV, do we watch shows about TV? No that’s super meta. We watch sports, the office, and super hero’s.

@aribk24 95% agree… I’d say self service SaaS is mostly cooked. There are a lot of enterprise and deep tech that will still need onboarding and account managers. Yes you could build a CRM in house, but building something as complex as Salesforce or Hubspot will still take a lot of time.

1. Use Cases. How many decentralized apps do you use day to day?. How often do you USE your NFTs?. Now ask that same question to someone outside the bubble of tech Twitter. It’s zero. Especially if you exclude Coinbase or wallets that hold your INVESTMENTS.

Imposter syndrome is like going to the gym. You think that all the big strong people in the gym are judging you for how little you can lift . When in reality they are willing to spot you and make sure you have good form. You judge yourself much harder than others do.
