EAGER: Decentralized Autonomous Organization (DAO)

去中心化自治组织合作中心(DACH)是一项开创性的国家合作倡议，旨在促进数字资产生态系统的持续创新。在加密货币等数字资产市值超过1万亿美元的时代，公共和私人合作的需要不仅重要，而且至关重要。认识到数字资产市场的动态性质，DACH项目旨在创建一个能够适应市场波动并保持相关性的稳健框架。DACH项目的影响超出了金融和加密货币领域，涉及医疗保健、先进制造、供应链管理、能源、交通、动态合同/自主以及Web3.0相关产品和服务等关键领域。此外，DACH为公共和私营部门的创新者提供了一个合作的机会，以减轻和处理该领域的一系列风险、欺诈和骗局。通过促进广泛参与的公共/私营伙伴关系，DACH项目旨在创造一个包容各方的环境，以迎合社会的不同需求和利益，从而使金融体系民主化并减少不平等。DACH将解决的技术挑战包括分散通知攻击、多呼叫交易审计、恶意提交多个无效提案以及使用多签名钱包进行链上交易验证相关的风险。通过去中心化自治组织(DAO)解决这些技术风险的操作价值包括：通过去中心化通信模型消除信息孤岛、改进访问、在创新的四个阶段使用道德黑客网络安全专家、作为迭代用例反馈机制无障碍地访问预期客户评论，以及通过博弈论减少参与者的冷漠。这个由美国主题专家管理的“创新沙盒”将提供一个受控的环境，创新者可以在其中协作、创造价值，并通过将广泛不同的投入正常化来降低风险。例如，尘埃网络DAO可鼓励采用可持续和负责任的空间探索(即建立标准化的碎片清除程序)。DAO可包括一名空间条约专家，从而避免政府行动产生意想不到的不利影响。一家初创企业正在建立DAO，为集体诉讼带来透明度。第一个使用案例与Lejeune营地的退伍军人遭受受污染的水对健康的影响有关。勒琼难民营的受害者成为掠夺性律师的牺牲品，他们寻求获得国会拨出的60多亿美元资金。DAO将使包括医生、病理学家、律师和军事服务在内的广泛利益攸关方能够进行合作，以确保用于退伍军人的资金的透明度和问责制。另一个使用案例是Battery DAO，它将当地社区的可持续能源发电(即屋顶太阳能电池板)的销售联系起来，并使用基于DAO的治理公平分享财务收益。以上只是早期的例子，因为DAO将支持广泛的创新和协作。与云计算一样，DACH将为数字资产生态系统内的创新建立一个模型。云计算现在代表着任何行业的IT基础设施配置的缩影。虽然被认为是一个高风险、高回报的项目，但收益远远超过短期风险。因此，这个项目引起了不同潜在利益相关者的广泛兴趣，包括五(5)个联邦机构(两个内阁级)、医疗保健提供者、Web 3.0公司、公共交通运营商、投资者和一群不同的创业初创公司。该奖项反映了NSF的法定使命，并通过使用基金会的智力优势和更广泛的影响审查标准进行评估，被认为值得支持。

The Decentralized Autonomous Organization Collaboration Hub (DACH) is a groundbreaking national collaboration initiative to foster continuous innovation in the digital asset ecosystem. In an era where digital assets, such as cryptocurrencies, have attained over a trillion dollars in market value, the need for public and private collaboration is not just important, but essential. Recognizing the dynamic nature of the digital asset market, the DACH project aims to create a robust framework that can adapt to market fluctuations and maintain relevance. The DACH project's impact extends beyond the financial and cryptocurrency sectors, reaching into vital areas like healthcare, advanced manufacturing, supply chain management, energy, transportation, dynamic contracting/autonomy and Web3.0 related products and services. Additionally, DACH presents an opportunity for public and private sector innovators to work together to mitigate and deal with a range of risks, frauds, and scams in this space. By fostering a public/private partnership with extensive participation, the DACH project aims to create an inclusive environment that caters to the diverse needs and interests of society, thereby democratizing financial systems and reducing inequalities.Technical challenges DACH will tackle include decentralized notification attacks, multi-call transaction audits, malevolent submission of multiple invalid proposals, and the risk associated with on-chain transaction verifications using multi-sig wallets. The operational value of addressing these technical risks through a Decentralized Autonomous Organization (DAO) includes elimination of information silos through a decentralized communications model, improved access, availability of ethical hacker cybersecurity experts during the four stages of innovation, frictionless access to prospective customer comments as an iterative use case feedback mechanism, and reduced participant apathy through game theory. Managed by US subject matter experts, this “innovation sandbox” will offer a controlled environment where innovators can collaborate, build value, and mitigate risk by normalizing broadly diverse inputs. For example, a Dust Network DAO could encourage adopting sustainable and responsible space exploration (i.e., creating a standardized debris removal process). The DAO might include a Space Treaty expert, thereby avoiding unanticipated adverse effects of governmental actions. A start-up is establishing a DAO to bring transparency to class action lawsuits. The first use case is related to Camp Lejeune military veterans suffering from the health effects of contaminated water. Camp Lejeune victims have fallen prey to predatory lawyers seeking access to over $6B in funds set aside by Congress. The DAO will enable collaboration across a wide range of stakeholders including doctors, pathologist, lawyers, and military services to ensure transparency and accountability of funds intended for veterans. Another use case is the Battery DAO which links the sale of sustainable energy generation (i.e., rooftop solar panels) from local neighborhoods and fairly shares financial gains using DAO-based governance. The above are just early examples, as the DAO will enable support for a wide range of innovations and collaborations. Like cloud computing, which now represents the epitome of IT infrastructure provisioning for any industry, the DACH will establish a model for innovation within the digital asset ecosystem. Though considered a high-risk high-reward project, the benefits far outweigh the short-term risks. As a result, this project has garnered widespread interest from diverse potential stakeholders, including five (5) federal agencies (two cabinet level), healthcare providers, Web 3.0 companies, public transportation operators, investors, and a disparate group of entrepreneurial startups.This award reflects NSF's statutory mission and has been deemed worthy of support through evaluation using the Foundation's intellectual merit and broader impacts review criteria.
