Can you talk about some that have been especially inspiring? * DAOs and their potential are a side passion of yours. From your perspective, why are DAOs important? What can DAOs offer that traditional organizations cannot? * DAOs are new and there’s a lot of tooling and structure to be designed. What are some of the problem areas you’ve seen? * Fast forward 5 - 10 years: is there an element of how society functions today that you think DAOs will have been able to improve upon? I know it’s just a vision right now, but can you be specific? * Other suggested: * You have seen a lot of projects come out of Protocol Labs.

How has it changed since you first got involved? * You’ve probably thought a lot about what DAOs can offer, especially from an altruistic perspective. Is there an implementation of DAOs you hope to see in the near future that doesn’t exist now? ## nonce * Spicy Question, why is nonce not a DAO ? * You are the founder of nonce, a co-living and co-working community in Korea. What was the inspiration for nonce and what are the main tenants of building such communities? * How does nonce sustain itself? * Can you share something about nonce’s evolution that has surprised you? * If everything plays out as hoped, what does nonce look like in 2 or 5 years? * Beyond IRL communities, you’re also studying DAOs as a whole and are writing a book on them. Can you share the main thesis or a primary observation? * In your opinion, what are some of the primary value propositions for DAOs over traditional corporations? * Have you observed differences in the evolution or purpose of DAOs in different parts of the world? * As someone who’s thought broadly about the application of DAOs, what is an application or idea that might not be out there but which you hope to see one day? * other suggested * Tell us about your background and how you discovered the world of DAOs? * What drew you to focusing specifically on DAOs, versus other elements of web3? * What is the state of DAOs in Korea today? * What do you see as the main differentiators for the adoption of DAOs in Asia? * What are DAOs outside of high level decision making?

Can you briefly describe Opolis from a user’s perspective? * For Josh * (following up on the above) Josh, are there any key elements of Opolis that Yalor didn’t mention that we should know about? * Can you elaborate on the need for Opolis in web3? What opportunities does Opolis create that traditional infrastructure doesn’t allow for? * How would a company that uses a web2 service for payroll and HR management transition to Opolis, and under what circumstances does it make sense for them to do so? * One way where DAOs differentiate from traditional business models is in the role the community plays. How does the Opolis community impact the company’s purpose or operations? * Are there any services or products on the Opolis roadmap you’re ready to reveal? * What are the demographics of the Opolis user base * How does the work token work * For Both * I’m sure you both have many ideas for products or services that belong in the DAO space.

Was that driven by Eugenio’s interest in NFTs or did someone at the corporate level promote embracing web3? * What have been the biggest obstacles you’ve faced in incorporating web3 into the organization? * Was Eugenio the first wish recipient to want to create NFTs or are you seeing more interest in the blockchain within your community? * Both: Clearly you both believe web3 will play a big role in philanthropy.
