Ep. 06 [PolygonDAO] On chain reputation tooling - the next frontier for DAO community growth & retention ~ Marco Moshi (Grendel)
DAOs that scale massively in growth face immense challenges when dealing with the horde of wannabe contributors. The implication for faking identity or work credentials is high & when dealing with the frontier of tech such as DeFi can be a minefield of trouble. Marco Moshi (Grendel), Operations Lead, PolygonDAO makes the case for a reputation layer to be the key for solving DAO’s current challenge of community onboarding & retention.
We talk about:
Why he chose the name Grendel as an inspiration from the antagonistic dragon in Beowulf
His life before crypto & how consuming Bankless content was the game changer for his entry to DAOs, the vibrancy of the DAO space & enjoying his contributions to BanklessDAO & Forefront
How he sought to decentralize & implement transparency for Polygon’s grants program for projects building on top of them
Why DAOs should focus on pain points that can dominate the web3 space & how such efforts require a lot of contributors
The parameters & definition for an on-chain reputation layer & the problems which the lack of credentialing creates for communities, how pseudonymity creates headaches, especially during onboarding in Defi
We also discuss how enabling a reputation layer for communities should facilitate better contribution & learning within communities.
