dao5

Dao5 is an experimental cryptocurrency investment fund that is in the process of converting into a DAO. Upon conversion, dao5 fund’s tokens will be minted and granted to the fund's investment team, advisory board, and portfolio company founders alike. A percentage of the general partner's assets are transferred on-chain into a Treasury owned and operated by dao5 crypto tokenholders.

The dao5 portfolio has 54 investments, including 3 successful exits, 9 lead investments, and 1 unicorn project.

The mission of dao5 is to empower portfolio founders to manage together a treasury of strategic assets wherein future decisions are solely taken by dao5 tokenholder’s governance. As a DAO, dao5 has no predefined mandate, but it would keep evolving as the needs of the decentralized economy continue to evolve.

dao5 subscribes to five core values:

• Incentive Alignment: Portfolio founders would be granted dao5 tokens in order to create an economically incentivized community via economic cross-pollination.
• Meritocracy: Contributors whose submitted investment proposals are successful will be compensated in proportion to their economic contribution.
• Privacy: dao5 embraces individual and financial privacy, and works with pseudonymous advisors; invests in projects whose founders are pseudonymous, and avoids surveillance technologies.
• Dunbar's Number: Whereas many DAOs will seek large membership, the governance of dao5 will be tightly held by a select, aligned few.
• Occam's Razor: A focus on simplicity and decentralization - as quoted by George Hotz.

dao5 - the organization that combines strategic asset management with privacy and meritocracy and takes into consideration the development of the approach of simplicity and decentralization in the line of DAO and cryptocurrency.
