# sovereign, decentral tool collection

###### tags: `deora` `research` `marketexploration`

**General goal:**
- collecting many different projects and initiatives that provide coordination solutions
- contact them and building a community together with them
- research and filter self-management processes (e.g. bounty system, multisig, task mgmt. decision making, self-management)

## Sovereign/Decent Software

put things here that are stateless, don't require username/password, and ideally use pub/priv key crypto. if you have tools that you are not sure about, put them in "Centralized/Hosted Software".
