Decentralized governance with a legal bridge

1. What is a DAO?

A DAO is a digital community run by its members through smart contracts on the blockchain, where decisions are made transparently. Members decide how the organization and projects are managed through defined governance rules written into the smart contracts.

2. Why is Solidus a DAO?

This structure provides an elegant, decentralized framework that allows for effective legal and operational flexibility across all global jurisdictions. It enables a diverse, international membership to collaborate on projects without the rigid constraints of a single centralized entity.

3. What are SPVs?

An SPV is a legal entity created for a single, specific project, offering benefits like risk isolation. They also facilitate asset securitization, allowing projects to bundle and manage specific project assets independently from the DAO.
