Hello, and welcome back to Crypto Sapiens Podcast Sponsored by Otterspace.
Today we are talking with Nelson, Co-founder of Avenue.
We start by discussing the tools that DAOs use, specifically Discord, and some of the challenges presented by them. Nelson says tools force behaviors on us. So, if we use the wrong tools, we will inevitably also use the wrong behaviors. He continues that their tools are currently informing DAO behavior.
We dig deeper into contributor behavior and find that they are not discovering what they can do but are limited by predefined roles, work, and channels.
Nelson adds we should instead build the right tools for people to suggest their work.
We continue by exploring the three Cs that Nelson says are important in DAOs: context, coordination, and collaboration.
And the role each plays in creating empowered contributors

We’re thrilled to be sponsored by Otterspace who are busy making Web3 less financialized.
Their protocol and app let communities build and issue badges to members to represent things like levels, roles, achievements, membership, and skills.
We’re excited about badges because they are earned, not bought. They are non-tradable coordination primitive for communities.
You can use badges for governance in Snapshot, token gating with Guild, and you can build your own custom extensions with their composable tools.
If you’ve been thinking about how to run non-financial governance, represent roles and permissions on-chain, or recognize contributions via social recognition, check out Otterspace at otterspace_xyz on Twitter or otterspace.xyz.
