Vitalik Buterin has emphasized the need for more decentralized autonomous organizations (DAOs) with improved designs. He criticized the current model where token holders control treasuries through voting, citing inefficiencies and vulnerability to capture, which fail to address human political weaknesses and lead to disappointment. Buterin highlighted the necessity of DAOs for creating better oracles, resolving on-chain disputes, maintaining lists, and facilitating both rapid project launches and long-term maintenance. He proposed a framework analyzing convex versus concave problems and stressed the importance of addressing privacy and decision fatigue. Modern technologies like zero-knowledge privacy and AI could help alleviate decision fatigue and aid consensus-building, though AI should enhance rather than replace human judgment. He also called for a communication layer in the DAO stack and urged projects to focus on oracles, governance, and communication layers.
