DAO, a fork of Moloch DAO, was started in 2019 with the goal to help create value around the Ethereum application layer. It was built around a similar model of aggregating capital from stakeholders with a vested interest in the stated goal of the organization and then deploying the funds where they see fit. While it was able to raise over 1,000 ETH, the sustainability of the model came into question as those funding the initiatives could not participate in the upside.
Recently, the team announced MetaCartel Ventures (MCV), a for-profit DAO designed with a legal entity known as “Grimoire” to make investments and benefit from their success. Participation in the DAO constitutes equity interest in the LLC and all members can engage in sourcing, diligencing and voting on investments. In order to join, an existing member must be submit a proposal on the prospective members behalf which is then voted on. Similar its non-profit DAO predecessors, members can leave at any time and receive their pro-rata share of the funds in the form of liquid tokens such as ETH or DAI, or claims on the same percentage of existing revenue-generating DAO assets.
