DAO governance basics: votes, treasuries, conflicts
DAO governance is coordination with tokens — and with conflicts of interest. As of 16.10.2026.
What a vote actually moves
Parameter changes, treasury spends, upgrades. Low turnout can concentrate power.
Treasury risk
Diversification, multisig policies, and reporting cadence matter more than slogan transparency.
Conflicts
Delegates, contributors, and large holders may vote their bags. Read proposals for who benefits.
Summary
Governance literacy is following the money and the keys.
