New Solutions Emerge to Replace Ethereum's Premature DAO Experiment
Blockchain technology is being used to create Decentralised Autonomous Organisations (DAOs), which allow for decentralised organisational hierarchies and more democratic decision making. One company, DAOstack, is using blockchain to tackle scalability issues in governance systems. The company uses a system called Holographic Consensus to divide an organisation into small groups, which are granted decision-making power by an internal relative majority. The platform ensures that the decisions made in the groups are reflected in the overall consensus. DAOstacks system could be used to conduct elections, make community decisions and institute national laws.
