Anas Bhurtun (@AnanasBRB) joined us for an punchy discussion around ArtsDAO (@arts_dao), one of Dubai's largest DAOs. We covered everything from how he set it up successfully, what he learned about creating a DAO, and why a DAO is so powerful as a digital community in Web3 (as opposed to other digital communities out there). Anas also gave so valuable insights into the key things you should focus on if you want to start your own successful DAO.
