Anyhow, now I'm all set up to try some adventures on Colony and other attractions in Gnosis land (recommendations welcome).

But an interesting realization here: microtransactions are real now! For a couple of decades now people have been fantasizing about being able to cheaply move pennies around, now you can! I'm gonna try and do a bunch of penny-scale transactions next just because I can.

Another really fun thing going on here is having the same address on multiple networks which feels very sci-fi. Like China Mieville's City and the City which I started reading but didn't finish (it is about 2 cities that somehow occupy the same space)

Well, my actual DAO adventures have actually begun, with the Yak Collective pilot on Colony. We're also evaluating Aragon, DaoStack and Daohaus, as well as just winging it with our own home-rolled solution.

Colony is basically a intra-DAO payments clearing house and voting-on-motions engine. Very different from the early beta I experimented with in 2017 which was a sort of distributed kanban board. That kind of project management functionality is now external to Colony.

The recommended tool for kanban type functionality to actually manage and coordinate DAO projects is app.clarity.so which I'm *really* liking so far. Kanban + a kind of roadmapping tool based on seasons, and Web3 native wallet signin and token-based gating and payments.

So I guess the idea is, you define and track projects and tasks in Clarity, with payment promises attached, but the actual payments are done on the DAO app on Colony. You then reconcile by checking a box on Clarity. This should obviously be an integration...

yep, totally agree on making this an integration. first step was consolidating the payout info into a single csv export, next step is a direct integration.

we're happy to add support if we have customers who will use it. it seems like Gnosis/xDAI is becoming the favorite chain for operations, which is right in our area of focus. i would happily scope this out with you--we're very collaborative.

What we're doing (a small pilot Colony DAO) is probably not big enough or competent enough to use as scoping input, but happy to chat anyway at some point after our gang has more experience with this stuff 😂
Replying to
cool! appreciate the context and openness. i'll chat with some of our other DAO partners who are using Gnosis Chain and can reach out for your input on the spec when we have one.
