DeepDAO is a discovery platform for DAOs and governance systems, centered on analytics and information gathering. Our main dashboard enumerates and ranks DAOs using several key metrics such as membership and assets under management (AUM). We are constantly expanding both coverage of DAOs and the metrics that quantify and measure the dynamics of governance processes in DAOs.
DeepDAO currently reports both financial and governance data on 100+ Top DAOs across five major platforms - Aragon, Moloch, DAOstack, OpenLaw and Colony. All DAOs on our system currently run on Ethereum or xDAI, and we are expanding our coverage to other chains and governance platforms as well. DeepDAO data is being used by major research firms (Delphi Digital, Messari), journalists, VCs, and DAOists across the ecosystem.
The end goal of this proposal is to list the Kusama Network (and in the future other Substrate organizations) on web-based platforms that collect data for users (like https://deepdao.io). The Kusama Network will work as a first experimentation approach when deciding how to organise the data collected, and will allow us to understand the mechanisms better.
Kusama would be listed together with all the other DAOs on DeepDAO, and potentially other platforms and ranked according to several metrics. Special sections are dedicated to each DAO on these platforms, and include related links, social media, written material, and data aggregation and analysis.
DeepDAO is a platform that helps people find and learn about DAOs, which are groups that make decisions together. They use important numbers like how many people are in the group and how much money they have to help rank these groups. DeepDAO tells us about over 100 big DAOs on five different platforms and they want to add more.
The people who made this idea want to add the Kusama Network, which is a way to try out new ideas, to DeepDAO. They think this will help them learn how to organize the information they collect. If they do this, Kusama will be listed with all the other DAOs and ranked based on different things. There will be special sections for each DAO with links and information about them.
