Role Call Ep 3: The Biggest Governance Mistakes DAOs Make w/Justine Humenansky (Optimism)


Listen Later

Role Call is a 6-part miniseries on DAOs, produced by Rehash and co-hosted by Hats Protocol. 

In our third episode of Role Call, we're joined once again by special guest host, Amy Jung (Eigen Foundation), to talk to Justine (Head of Governance at Optimism Foundation) about the concept of progressive decentralization and the challenges and considerations involved in transitioning responsibilities to a DAO. 

We explore topics like infrastructure readiness, measuring success, and the balance between transparency and governance, and Justine shares some insights into Optimism's approach, frameworks, and the ongoing development of their governance processes. 

We also briefly discuss the importance of clear mission alignment, data-driven decision-making, and the complexities of managing power dynamics within a decentralized framework.
