DAO (Decentralized Autonomous Organization) is an organization built on blockchain technology. It typically operates autonomously, without centralized control. DAOs represent a collective community of participants who make decisions based on predefined rules and protocols recorded in smart contracts.
DAO mechanisms are actively used in the cryptocurrency ecosystem and among blockchain startups. They find wide applications in fund management, the creation and development of new protocols, organizing votes, and resource management. A distinctive feature of DAOs is the ability to evolve and function without the need to trust all decisions to centralized authorities.
